You will need to erase all the data off iPod Touch in order to protect them from being read, seen, exposed or used by others.
Why need a tool to wipe the data on your iPod?
However, it’s not the case that once you delete the data by hand, they will be removed entirely. They just seem to be got rid of from you device, there will actually still retain some on it. For the former case, before wiping all the data, you should first check all the iOS software updates and install them. Transfer the data to the computer to ensure all the important ones are safe, and back them up. If you use iCloud to make backups, make sure your iPod Touch is connected to Wi-Fi and the power supply.
