| Abstract | It has been well documented that lack of trust between commercial entities and purchasers can restrict the potential of e-commerce. This may be because the purchaser is required to provide personal information to the commercial entity, which may then be abused, or because the purchaser may be suspicious that after payment has been processed, the goods purchased will not arrive. The challenge for the researcher is to determine the e-commerce model which maximizes the trust a purchaser has when shopping online.In this paper, we focus on the personal information which must be revealed by the purchaser when purchasing online and we present the first comprehensive analysis of personal information distributed in an e-commerce setting from the point of view of the purchaser and his perception of trust in an online transaction. We introduce a measure of trust based on the information distributed to the parties in the transaction and isolate the instances which maximize trust for the purchaser relative to the personal information revealed. This leads us to the establishment of a theoretical framework on which to compare e-commerce protocols and to the development of four new models, all of which, as we demonstrate, are better in concrete ways than the traditional e-commerce model based on secure e-payment protocols. While the overall cost of implementation to the parties remains the same as in the traditional protocols, there is a slight overall decrease in cost to the seller but a slight increase in cost to the deliverer. However, the small additional costs to the deliverer are mitigated by the opportunity for new capabilities and business. Implementation of our work is likely to improve consumer trust and therefore lead to an increase in on-line commerce, especially in countries where privacy recognition is not strong. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
