Privacy policy - UK Battery Repairs
Respecting privacy and safeguarding personal data.
We envision a global economy where businesses operate as agents of positive change, benefiting all stakeholders. Our focus lies in reclaiming valuable materials from Lithium-Ion batteries, not merely as a profit-driven venture but as a sustainable endeavor that nurtures our planet and its inhabitants.
We advocate for a paradigm shift where recycling becomes economically rewarding for individuals, ensuring that it surpasses the cost of extracting raw materials from the earth. Moreover, our approach to reclaiming raw materials prioritises environmental and social sustainability, striving to minimise adverse impacts on both the planet and its people.
Our core activities involve:
Recycling useful materials from urban waste (Urban Mining) and facilitating end-to-end circular and logistic processes in the realm of Lithium Ion batteries (Reversed logistics).
Providing guidance and services pertaining to safe handling, compliance with legal regulations, and administrative procedures concerning Lithium Ion batteries and other battery waste logistics.
Data, individuals, and society
Through conscientious decisions regarding electronic waste, we endeavor to contribute to a fairer, greener, and more humane economy and society. Recognising the transformative power of data, we aim to leverage it for understanding and addressing societal challenges.
Data holds the potential to illuminate insights into our world and human behaviour, enabling us to prevent waste, minimise costs, and foster societal progress. For instance, by analysing diverse datasets, manufacturers can optimise inventory management, reducing food wastage. Similarly, personalised medicine utilises personal data to tailor treatments, enhancing efficacy and minimising side effects.
However, we acknowledge the dual nature of data, understanding that while it can enrich lives, its misuse can have detrimental effects.

Data serves as a cornerstone for improving our organisation's services and operations. By harnessing insights derived from data analysis, we aim to enhance service quality, mitigate risks, and innovate for the betterment of individuals' lives.
