If you want to quickly remove your search history and delete every piece of evidence of your online activities, use DuckDuckGo’s “fire” button. Use this feature if you want your data to be used to create a more personalized experience for you. Whitelisting implies that the trackers on such websites will be allowed to collect your data. With DuckDuckGo, you’ll also have the option to whitelist some sites that you trust. This tool assesses the site’s privacy protocols, activity trackers, and past records to formulate a score that’ll help you decide whether or not you should visit it.Īlthough the feature comes under “Site Privacy Protection,” site ratings will be available even if it's not enabled. If you want to know how safe a site is, DuckDuckGo's site rating feature will be your friend.
However, you can choose which trackers you wish to block - lots of room for customization. While we don't recommend turning it off, DuckDuckGo still gives you the option to do so.
