But on Tuesday, the company announced that it is getting into desktop browsers, too. More about DuckDuckGo: The app provides links to learn more about DuckDuckGo, including About Us, Privacy Newsletter, Privacy Policy, and Open Source Code.DuckDuckGo, the privacy-focused search engine with the weird name, already offers web browsers for iOS and Android and browser extensions for Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. However, the app's other tracker blocking methods are unrestricted. Currently, this one loading protection doesn't apply to Microsoft scripts on 3rd-party sites due to contractual restrictions. Additionally, in the extension, the app offers a specific type of protection that stops scripts from even loading on 3rd-party sites, which isn’t offered on most popular browsers by default. Then, blocking these trackers can sometimes break functionality, so the app needs to develop new approaches without hurting usability. New trackers emerge all the time, so first, the app needs to find them. When users leave the search engine to use other sites, the app aims to block as many hidden trackers as possible, but it can't block them all for a few reasons. Note about tracker blocking for 3rd-party sites: DuckDuckGo never tracks users. Privacy, simplified: The app provides best-in-class privacy essentials and makes browsing Safari even faster. DuckDuckGo Private Search: Although the extension doesn't include DuckDuckGo Private Search, it is built into Safari as a default search option. Enabling all three gives seamless privacy protection.
Enable Tracker Blocking and the Privacy Dashboard within Safari: After installing the extension, users will be asked to enable Tracker Blocking and the Privacy Dashboard within Safari. Stop companies behind those trackers before they use sneaky tactics to try to collect and sell your data. Escape online tracking: Block most hidden tracking scripts lurking on the websites you visit (e.g., when you click on search results). The app also helps prevent websites from tracking you with their own cookies by automatically expiring those first-party cookies after 7 days. Block tracking cookies: Prevent most cross-site (aka 3rd party) cookies from tracking you as you browse from site to site.
