Where does any data stored on the computer go or what form does it take when it is permanently deleted from the computer's memory?

When you delete a file from the trash bin, the data is still there for the file but the reference to the file (the area on the storage device that shows where all the files are) is deleted. You can permanently delete a file by using a program, such as Eraser (http://www.tolvanen.com/eraser/) that writes random data where the file was.
