Summary: This draft recommendation aims to define good practices for the sanitization of the information media in end-of-life ICT user devices. For that, it provides an analysis of the necessary steps and practices to implement a storage media sanitation service in reconditioning, refurbishment and recycling centres for waste electrical and electronic equipment. It focuses on the end of the information life cycle and facilitating circular ICT practices to return devices or parts to a working condition for reuse, also known as refunctionalization. This recommendation applies to personal ICT user devices such as desktop and laptop computers, notebooks, tablets or terminals such as smartphones, and information media such as discs, solid-state drives, and USB media.
