DuckDuckGo Browser

DuckDuckGo is a privacy-focused internet browser and search engine that originated in the United States. Founded in 2008 by Gabriel Weinberg, the brand established itself as a leading alternative to mainstream search engines by emphasizing user privacy and refusing to track search history or profile users for advertising purposes.

While software development and digital services do not have a physical 'manufacturing' location in the traditional sense, the primary engineering and infrastructure operations are based in the United States, with a globally distributed remote workforce. The browser is available across multiple platforms including iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows.

Ownership of the brand remains private. It is owned and operated by Duck Duck Go, Inc., which is headquartered in Paoli, Pennsylvania. The company has maintained its independence despite numerous investment rounds from venture capital firms, continuing its mission to simplify online privacy for users worldwide.
