national
and international copyright

Please
note
that
deleting
images or formatting memory cards or other data
storage devices does
not
completely
erase
the
original image data.
Deleted
files
can
sometimes be recovered from discarded storage devices using com-
mercially available
software,

malicious

of
per-

is
the
user's
responsibility.
Before discarding a data storage device or transferring ownership
to
another
person, erase
all
data using
commercial deletion software,
or
format
the
device and then completely refill
it
with
images containing
no
private infor-
mation (for
example,
pictures
of
empty
sky).
Care
should
be taken
to
avoid
injury when physically destroying data storage devices.
