Get rid of redundant data and give your old devices a new life

List yourself or your organisation as a participant and put your digital life in order!

Delete all unnecessary images, videos, and files from your phone, computer, tablet, and cloud.
Safely dispose of your old phones, cables, computers and other devices – anything that you no longer need is valuable material for recycling.

We use a climate-friendly view on this page. This way, we can reduce CO₂ emissions together.

The view reduces the CO₂ footprint of viewing a page by an average of 30%, and by as much as 70% compared to pages with a large number of images. The savings comes from avoiding data-intensive elements that require a lot of energy from both your screen and our servers.
