Terms & Conditions

Clear. Fair. Transparent.

Scope of Services

These Terms & Conditions apply to all services and products offered by RedLibrary, including but not limited to certified data wiping and destruction, IT support, hardware sales, training, and consultancy.

Certified Data Wiping & Destruction

• Devices are processed either by wiping or destruction.

• Each qualifying item receives a Certificate of Data Destruction. These are non-transferable, timestamped, and verifiable using a serial and verification key.

• Customers must send items via tracked post. Return shipping is only included with premium services.

• We are not liable for in-transit damage unless RedLibrary arranged the courier. Insured postage is strongly recommended.

• Devices with low-capacity storage (e.g., SSDs ≤64GB, HDDs <300GB, or memory cards ≤64GB) may be destroyed even if wiping was purchased, at no extra cost.

• Processing takes approximately 10–14 business days from receipt to return dispatch.

• We reserve the right to refuse service for any item or customer, including hazardous or irreparable devices, or those without adequate documentation.

Hardware Sales

• All pre-owned hardware sold by us is tested, verified, and securely wiped.

• A 30-day functional warranty applies from delivery.

• Returns are accepted for faults not caused by misuse, modification, or accidental damage.

• Cosmetic defects are not covered unless they affect usability.

IT Services and Support

• Remote support, malware removal, and software setup are covered by a 6-month warranty if:
- No third-party system changes were made after service
- The issue is reproducible and linked to our work

• Follow-up support may require remote access with consent.

• This excludes user error, new malware, or third-party interference.

Training and Certification

• Certificates are issued upon completion or successful device processing.

• These are non-transferable and may show identifying details (e.g., name, date of birth).

• Verification is possible using a secure serial + key system.

• We may revoke or amend certificates if errors are found.

Donations and Reuse

• Devices submitted without resale value or donated for destruction may be refurbished, resold, or recycled.

• Ownership transfers to RedLibrary upon receipt unless otherwise agreed in writing.
