## Facts
- Free diagnostic on every job; fixed written quote before any chargeable work
- No fix, no fee on most jobs; never a percentage of recovered value
- Work performed in-house by our own engineers; devices never outsourced to third parties
- Drop off in person on the Guildford Guildford Business Park, or post fully insured; there is no collection service
- Send the drive, not the machine — take the drive out of a laptop, PC, Mac or CCTV/DVR recorder before sending. An external drive in its own enclosure, and a NAS unit, can be sent whole

## Scope and limitations
- We do not recover mobile phones or tablets — it is a separate discipline
- We do not offer board-level recovery of Macs with soldered storage (Apple T2 or Apple Silicon). Where such a Mac still powers on we can image the data off it; a dead logic board with soldered, encrypted flash is unrecoverable, for us or anyone
- Modern ransomware (LockBit, Akira, BlackCat and similar) cannot be decrypted by anyone, including us. We recover around the encryption instead — deleted originals the malware missed, shadow copies, and anything still readable on the disk
