a better google! Works like a charm.

this is a search engine that claims that it doesn't track you
Helpful
The best search engine there is.  100% Private, duckduckgo doesn't track or bubble you and !bangs make it better than google.  Downside is no monetary conversion and if you are looking for a specific location it is better to use google for the maps.

no tracking, nothing! Rest assured your searches will never be used.

Does not track your searches, provides good results. I suggest this if you want to protect your privacy or avoid being marketed to while on the internet based on your info being tracked.

Motore di ricerca che non ti traccia. Questo è un grosso punto a favore rispetto, per esempio, a Google, anche se l'accuratezza dei risultati di ricerca è lievemente inferiore.

search engine to rival Google, without the tracking that Google is repudiated to do.

One of the few Search Engines that doesn't track whatever you're doing. :)

Worthful alternative to google. Another search engine that is rather powerful and provides good results.

Good search engine that does a good job of blocking adult content and unlike google, it doesn't track you. If you want you can disable ads on the duckduckgo search engine to.

I switched to DDG from Google some time ago, largely because Google's insistent badgering for more and more information & serving me up undesired 'personalised' search results. DDG's privacy policy is rock solid and something most search providers would do well to mirror. The recent DDG UI redesign is absolutely terrific, and makes DDG as aesthetically pleasant as Google's experience. Some time ago there were valid concerns about DDG not offering as much search depth as Google, but I've found this to no longer be the case for the vast vast majority of my searches - I perhaps have to use Google to find what I require in only 1 in 30 searches or so. A search engine that is only getting better, and retaining its core values whilst doing so. So far, a big thumbs up from me.
