You'll know you're on a secure page by looking for a small lock icon in the web page status bar at the bottom of your web page in the status bar.

Encryption is the scrambling of information for transmission back and forth between two points using a numerical formula that scrambles the information. Your web browser and our computers understand these formulas that turn your shopping session into numeric code (encode your data) while your information is traveling over the Internet, and back into meaningful information (decode your data) when it arrives at your computer or the AsiaCollection.Net store.

The effectiveness, or level of security for encryption is measured in terms of the length of the key used to encode and decode your data. The longer the key, the longer it would take for someone without the correct decoder key and with very sophisticated computer equipment to break the code. The length of the key is measured in bits.

Currently, there are international grade browsers (40-bit), and there are domestic grade browsers (128-bit and 56-bit). The 128-bit browser offers the highest level of encryption generally available to the public in North America today and provides very strong protection when transmitting confidential data over the Internet.

40-bit encryption means there are 240 possible decoder keys that could be used to decode your account information. That means there are many billions (a 1 followed by 12 zeros) of possible keys.

128-bit encryption means there are 288 possible decoder keys that could be used to decode your account information. There are many billions (a 1 followed by 26 zeros) of possible keys. According to Netscape, 128-bit encryption is 309,485,009,821,345,068,724,781,056 times more powerful than 40-bit encryption.

Once you are satisfied with the certificate and the protection, feel free to put in all of the information we ask for. (All the information -- including sensitive data such as name, address, e-mail and credit card information is "encrypted" through a secure server for maximum security at all time).

With all of these elements in place, you can see why, at AsiaCollection.Net, your security is our number one concern.
