More About DuckDuckGo Private Browser

DuckDuckGo is a free browser that provides the most comprehensive online privacy protection in one app. Unlike most popular browsers, it has powerful privacy protections by default, including our search engine that doesn’t track your history and over a dozen other built-in protections. Millions of people use DuckDuckGo as their go-to browser to protect their everyday online activities, from searching to browsing, emailing, and more.

DuckDuckGo is a search engine application that prioritizes user privacy. It comes with built-in features that allow users to search the internet without being tracked. This is done through private search and blocking most trackers before they can load. The app also offers email protection by blocking email trackers and providing users with @duck.com email addresses to hide their existing email addresses.

In addition to these features, DuckDuckGo also automatically enforces encryption to protect user data from network and Wi-Fi snoopers. It also offers protection for other apps by blocking hidden app trackers and preventing third-party companies from invading user privacy. This feature uses a VPN connection, but it is not a VPN itself and does not collect personal data.

The app also helps users escape fingerprinting by blocking attempts to combine information about their browser and device, making it harder for companies to create a unique identifier for them. These protections are not typically available on most browsers, even in private browsing mode.

DuckDuckGo also offers everyday privacy controls, such as the Fire Button which allows users to quickly clear their tabs and browsing data. It also helps minimize cookies and maximize privacy by automatically setting preferences and blocking cookie pop-ups. The app also includes Global Privacy Control (GPC) which allows users to express their opt-out rights and prevent websites from selling or sharing their personal information.

For those looking for even more privacy, DuckDuckGo offers a subscription service called Privacy Pro. This includes a VPN to secure connections on up to 5 devices, personal information removal from sites that store and sell it, and identity theft restoration services. The subscription can be managed through the app settings and users have the option to provide an email address for verification purposes only.

Overall, DuckDuckGo is a comprehensive privacy app that offers a range of features to protect user data and online activities. It is available for free and offers additional subscription services for those looking for even more privacy. Users can learn more about the app's tracking protections and read the privacy policy and terms of service on the DuckDuckGo website.
