Quotes – All written or verbal quotes are valid for 30 days from the date issued unless otherwise noted.
Change in Cost – Prices may be revised due to:
Global market fluctuations (e.g., tariffs, import duties)
Changes in component availability or memory demand
The Technician reserves the right to adjust quoted prices if any of the above conditions materially affect cost before work commences.
4. Outsourcing & Sub‑Contracting

5. Data Destruction (Non‑Desktop Support)
When a Client requests data destruction as part of a service, the Technician will follow the Client’s chosen method from the options below:
Single‑pass wipe (zeros) Overwrites all sectors once with zeros. Fast but less secure.
Multiple‑pass wipe (DoD standard) Overwrites data multiple times to meet Department of Defense security standards.
Secure erase (SSDs) Uses the drive’s built‑in Secure Erase command to remove data.
Random data overwrite Fills the drive with random data, making recovery nearly impossible.
The Technician will confirm the selected method in writing before commencing destruction.
6. Monitoring & Alerts
When a Client engages “24/7 monitoring” services:
The Technician is employeed full time and part time in other capacities. As a result of this, the Technician will not be on call 24 hours per day.
