Safety of selling iPhone after factory reset.

Hey guys,


I have to sell my iPhone for personal reasons. I have done some research on safety of my data. But I’m not sure what’s what.


So my question is, how safe is an Apple factory reset? I know data can be recovered from storage devices.


What’s the chance of the buyer getting my data off my iPhone? It’s an iPhone SE 2020 running 13.6.

iPhone SE, iOS 13
