It’s natural to assume that there’d be some kind of downside, since we respect your privacy and we don’t track you. But it’s a myth that creepy tracking is a necessary tradeoff. DuckDuckGo does everything you’d expect of a browser and search engine — while still protecting your privacy.

Our free DuckDuckGo browser includes our private alternative to Google search, along with over a dozen other privacy protections for your browsing, email, and more. The browser’s comprehensive set of protections is used by tens of millions of people to help take back control of their online privacy.

DuckDuckGo Search includes news, maps, sports scores, weather, stocks, local results and much more — in addition to the standard links, images, and videos, of course. And unlike Google, it’s actually private and anonymous. Nothing bad about that.
