Environment
Data Íslandia does not endorse or support the Icelandic government’s decision to resume commercial whaling. We are also a supporter of UNICEF and contribute to Amnesty International.
Our data management policies minimise our environmental footprint. In many cases, clients are able to greatly reduce their non-green energy expenditures and avoid costly facilities construction for expansion. We offer service levels matching requirements for rapid file access and retrieval with economical data storage systems.
New data facilities are designed with Icelandic conditions in mind. For example, passive-cooling techniques take advantage of Iceland’s year-round cool and low-humidity climate.
Data Íslandia is committed to the efficient and responsible use of energy and resources in our operations. Energy efficiency and carbon emissions are considered in the purchase of equipment and services.
Our major data facilities are powered entirely by renewable energy. We work closely with leading environmental accreditation organisations for independent verification of our sustainability policy.
