Straight from Wiki - I have no involvement beyond being a user.
DuckDuckGo is an internet search engine that emphasizes protecting searchers' privacy and avoiding the filter bubble of personalized search results. DuckDuckGo distinguishes itself from other search engines by not profiling its users and by showing all users the same search results for a given search term.

Yes, BUT you won't find objects of your searches there then paraded in other website ads, such as right here on UHH! If instead you employ Google, you can bet any stores, brands, or merchandise mentioned in results you click on will show up here ... and elsewhere.
