Data recovery price list

Following are the costs of data recovery procedures for different storage media and the type of damage.
Each case is different and it is necessary to analyze the device in order to estimate the possibility of recovery data as well as the valuation of procedure.

Due to differences in taxation and provision of services around the world, all prices are without TAX.

We support payments by card / bank transfer / cash / international and we issue VAT invoices.
