Loss of personal data is common and often devastating. Research commissioned by BUG found two in three Australians have lost data from their home computer, and that data loss is indiscriminate - it happens to men and women of all ages, education/income, and place of residence.
In an Australian first the innovative new BUG Data Pack makes it easy to keep important or valuable personal and work data safe.
Using the BUG Data Pack to protect data that - just too precious or valuable to lose is as easy as copying it to disc and posting it, sealed in a BUG Data Pack, to BUG for secure offsite storage.
By securely storing copies of precious data away from the original data it is safe and accessible when things go wrong ie. computer/equipment failure and theft, virus, malicious acts, accident, human error, fire and flood.
Single use BUG Data Packs are available at www.backupguarantee.com.au for $30+gst and give pre-paid postal access to up to five years secure disc storage with BUG. When the initial five years is up we seek instruction regarding storage extension, return, or free secure destruction.
Store from around 2,000 to 25,000 photos and/or tens of thousands of documents in one BUG Data Pack, depending on the type of disc you use and the size of each file.
Using the BUG Data Pack you don't need to be a computer geek (or even have an internet connection) to back-up offsite. You only need to be able to copy data to disc, or to ask someone to do it for you.
BUG Director, Tim Laurie advises 'For those who are not backing-up, periodically use BUG as a bare-minimum to protect data that's just too valuable to lose. For those already doing onsite back-ups, periodically complement this with offsite data storage with BUG so your data is safe no matter what.'
