Green Reboot

Currently, electronic waste faces obstacles to proper disposal, including lack of public awareness and difficulties in transporting certain types of waste. In the medium term, this affects people’s lives, as these materials release toxic components that cause serious diseases, such as cancer and Alzheimer’s. To address this issue, strengthening reverse logistics becomes essential, and that is where Green Reboot comes in. Green Reboot is a gamified mobile app focused on responsible e-waste disposal, connecting users free of charge to collection points or cooperatives, allowing them to earn points that can be exchanged for benefits with partner brands.

Ethics

The Green Reboot development follows the LGPD (Brazil’s General Data Protection Law), ensuring user safety through encrypted databases and a strict data minimization policy. We only collect essential identification data: email, username and password required to sign up; utility features, such as real-time location, are strictly permission-based to ensure transparency. Our AI scanner was strategically designed to be objective, preventing unnecessary processing to reduce the energy and water footprint of cloud servers. To ensure fairness, the model was trained on diverse technical hardware datasets, mitigating bias and ensuring impartial feedback for every user. Regarding accessibility, the app features an intuitive interface with universal icons, like the camera for scanning, to simplify navigation. Beyond the technical solution, Green Reboot prioritizes environmental impact. By facilitating correct e-waste disposal, we transform potential pollution into a circular economy, ensuring technology serves as a positive force for both people and the planet.
