Nice clean page to which to open brower. Seems to always find what I seek. See no evidence that we have been breached.

1) Results are 500x better than competitors like Duck Duck Go.

2) Under EU laws, they'd have to notify you of any major privacy/data changes, so if the System1 connection was an issue we would know about it.
- They have also undergone extensive third party audits, and will probably do so in the future, unlike many other private search engines
- They have published a data flow diagram as well: https://support.startpage.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/1276/0/what-is-the-startpage-privacy-guarding-data-flow

100% recommend StartPage.

我想要中文设置页面，谢谢，爱你们哟！

I did an extensive analysis of https://www.startpage.com using the UBlock Origin, UMatrix, Disconnect, Privacy Badger, Cookie Autodelete and HTTPS Everywhere Firefox addons. Result: I found that cookies, images, css, media, scripts ... everything, came from one domain only: startpage.com. Not a single script for any other domain (including Google), no tracking cookies, no analytics, no ad related JavaScript, no CDNs, no tags, beacons ... NOTHING, only startpage.com.
I did my "homework" and now I can believe on what I see, startpage is currently CLEAN as it always was.

"Startpage" ist fast wie Google nur bekommt man hier 100% bessere Ergebnisse ohne Tracking und lästige Werbung!
