<h2>Safari 12 Update</h2>

<p>The Safari 12 desktop browser moved to a <a href="https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safariservices/safari_app_extensions" target="_blank">new model</a> for browser extensions that offers users greater security and performance. It also meant that our original extension was no longer compatible, but with Safari 13 new functionality was thankfully added that enabled us to bring it back. Consequently, our DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials extension is once again available to desktop Safari users, although note you'll need Safari 13+ on macOS 10.15 (Catalina) or newer to install the updated version.</p>

<p>Due to the changes in Safari, we unfortunately had to remove DuckDuckGo Smarter Encryption (our technology for enforcing secure website connections), but we are hopeful to restore this functionality to Safari as well soon. We were, however, able to increase our tracker blocking coverage, and enhance the user interface for a better overall extension experience.</p>

<p>You can get <a href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/duckduckgo-privacy-for-safari/id1482920575">DuckDuckGo Privacy for Safari here</a>, and see our <a href="https://help.duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/desktop/safari/">help page for installation instructions</a>. In addition to Safari, the extension is also available for <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/duckduckgo-for-firefox/" target="_blank">Firefox</a>, <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/duckduckgo-privacy-essent/bkdgflcldnnnapblkhphbgpggdiikppg" target="_blank">Chrome, Brave and Vivaldi</a>, with the full suite of privacy features.</p>

DuckDuckGo is available in multiple different languages and regional dialects.
</p>

<p>
By default, DuckDuckGo Search will mimic your browser's language setting, but you can choose a different display language for DuckDuckGo <a href="https://duckduckgo.com/settings">on the settings page</a>.
</p>

<p>
We're very grateful to our amazing community of translators who have contributed most of the translations on DuckDuckGo.

<p>
DuckDuckGo was solo-founded by <a href="http://ye.gg/">Gabriel Weinberg</a> in
February 2008 in Valley Forge, PA (USA).
</p>

<p>
It was self-funded until October 2011, when it was backed by Union Square
Ventures and a handful of angel investors. Since that funding, and a
<a href="https://spreadprivacy.com/duckduckgo-partners-with-omers-ventures-to-expand-canadian-presence-and-global-impact/">second round of funding by OMERS Ventures in 2018</a>, the team has expanded to over 100 employees and a bunch of

category: Company
order: 47

It is a myth that search engines need to track you to make money. We make our money from private ads on our search engine. On most other search engines, ads are based on profiles compiled from your personal information, such as search, browsing, and purchase history. Since we don’t have that information per our [Privacy Policy](https://duckduckgo.com/privacy), search ads on DuckDuckGo are based on the search results page you’re viewing instead of being based on you as a person. For example, if you search for cars, we’ll show you ads about cars. We’ve even created a way to show localized ads while still keeping you completely anonymous. See the <a href="{{site.baseurl}}/privacy/anonymous-localized-results/">Anonymous Localized Results</a> help page for more information on how we do this technically.

The name DuckDuckGo is derived from
<a href="https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Duck%2C+Duck%2C+Goose">Duck, Duck, Goose</a>, but it's not a metaphor.

Since we produce our own extensions and apps for the major platforms, we've found people increasingly confused as to what was produced by us and what was produced by others. We encourage you to use our official APIs listed, but please also follow these guidelines when promoting your applications:

* Please don't use DuckDuckGo in the title. (There can be exceptions so please contact us if you think you have a case for doing so). Mentioning us in the description is fine.
* Please don't use Dax (our mascot).
* Please don't pair our search with something that has another privacy policy, like another auto-complete service that tracks people, as doing so gives users a false sense of privacy.
* Please don't include our search results in any sort of frame (whether desktop or mobile) that makes our site embedded within another Web application with the notable exception of browser integration. We simply don't have the rights to allow framing based on how [we generate our search results](/results/sources). For clarity, browser integration where there is an address bar and our site (with branding) takes up the full screen is just fine and encouraged!
* Please don't use our [URL parameters](https://duckduckgo.com/params) to strip our branding from our site.
* Please give us attribution where it makes sense, and where you do link back to the [encrypted version of our homepage](https://duckduckgo.com/).
