Warning: Copiers Contain Data

Think twice before you turn in your copier for a new one.  Did you know that many copiers, especially the ones that can connect to your network, contain hard drives and copies of the documents are stored on that hard disk?  When you turn in your copier, it generally get's refurbished and sold to another user or even another country.  Frequently, the data on the disk is not removed creating a security breach for those in your organization and your contact sphere.  Watch this video and see if you don't consider a new policy for discarding your old copier.
