How Can Shredding Documents Protect My Customers And Clients?
Tuesday, January 28th, 2014
These days you are always seeing news stories about identity theft and credit card number hacking. Therefore, it’s better to be safe than sorry when it comes to your personal documents. If you own a business and handle sensitive documents, the same goes. As a business, it’s your duty to protect your clients’ privacy. Document destruction can help protect your customers and client’s identities and private paperwork.
Document shredding is a foolproof way to destroy documents so they cannot be read by people who should be reading them. This is the best way to protect clients from any type of property, account, or information theft. Businesses should shred their unneeded documents for a couple of reasons.
The first reason is client safety. Clients depend on you to keep their information confidential and private, and shredding paperwork enforces and ensures that the items are kept safe and secure.
The second reason is recycling. With so many paper products being used, the best way to dispose of shredded paper is to recycle it, which is the greenest, most planet-friendly way to deal with unnecessary and unwanted documents and papers.
Document shredding deters criminals from stealing important information, and instills confidence in your customers. White collar crimes, which includes identity theft, make up a vast portion of today’s criminal activity. To avoid that, document shredding and destruction is your number one weapon against white collar crime.
When clients are reassured that you will be shredding their sensitive documents, they know they can trust you with their information. And though much information is readily available electronically now, that is not always a safe way to store data, as we have seen through multiple data breaches in the past and present.
Destroying paper evidence is the only surefire way to prevent identity theft, and your clients will thank you for keeping them safe. Tax information, bank accounts, paychecks, legal documents, pin numbers, and contact information are just a few examples of documents that need to be safely shredded and kept from prying eyes.
