SUNNYVALE, Calif., Dec. 07 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FutureDial Embedded today announced that its software and automation solutions enable mobile device refurbishment companies to meet and exceed the demand for accurate device functional testing, cosmetic grading and data sanitization according to standards R2v3 established for the electronics industry by Sustainable Electronics Recycling International (SERI).
Deadline for R2v3 compliance is July 1st2023
Before a mobile phone dealer or recycler can resell or recycle used mobile devices they have refurbished, they must meet regulatory standards such as R2v3 that ensure they remove sensitive personal information from all electronics. Thus, accurate testing and data erasure have become essential to meet industry standards such as R2v3. Additionally, recyclers must be R2v3 compliant by July 1, 2023. The good news is that for years, FutureDial solutions have exceeded R2v3 requirements for testing and data erasure, with verification and certification of each recorded and auditable data erasure. This protects refurbishers and their partners by ensuring that personal data does not remain on devices after processing.
