    Disposing of Data Storage Devices
    Please note that deleting images or formatting data storage devices such as memory 
    cards or built-in camera memory does not completely erase the original image data.

    commercially available software, potentially resulting in the malicious use of personal 
    image data. Ensuring the privacy of such  data 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 set  Record location data in 
    Location data options  in the location data options menu ( A78) to  Off after 
    formatting the device and then completely re fill it with images containing no private 
    information (for example, images of empty sky). Care should be taken to avoid injury 
    or damage to property when physically destroying data storage devices.
    For the COOLPIX AW130, the log data saved on the memory card is handled in the 
    same way as other data. To erase the log data that is obtained but not stored on the 
    memory card, select Create log  M  End all logs  M  Erase logs .
