Disposing of Data Storage Devices
Please note that deleting images or formatting data storage devices such as memory
cards or built-in camera memory does not completely erase the original image data.
Deleted fi les can sometimes be recovered from discarded storage devices using com-
mercially available software, potentially resulting in the malicious use of personal image
data. Ensuring the privacy of such data is the user’s responsibility.
Before discarding a data storage device or transferring ownership to another person,
erase all data using commercial deletion software, or format the device and then com-
pletely refi ll it with images containing no private information (for example, pictures of
empty sky). Be sure to also replace any pictures selected for the welcome screen. Care
should be taken to avoid injury or damage to property when physically destroying data
storage devices.
