Spread Privacy

We’re proud to announce EFF is switching to the DuckDuckGo Smarter Encryption dataset in their HTTPS Everywhere extension, which automatically upgrades to secure website connections when possible.

Google has created a new tracking mechanism called FLoC, put it in Chrome, and automatically turned it on for millions of users. It's bad for privacy, which is why we're now blocking it in the DuckDuckGo extension.

We're excited to announce a big step forward with the introduction of route-planning directions on DuckDuckGo Search – private, as always.

We're proud to announce the launch of Global Privacy Control (GPC), a new standard to put privacy protection in the hands of consumers.

New in iOS 14, Apple now allows people to set certain browsers as the default browser (other than Safari), and DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser is now an approved default browser.

In our tenth year of charitable donations, our continued growth has enabled us to increase our donations to $750,000.

We're delighted to announce the Vivaldi browser has incorporated DuckDuckGo Tracker Radar, resulting in easy, effective tracker protection for its users.
