New EU Search Engine Privacy Guidelines

Yahoo!, Google, Microsoft etc. may finally have to dramatically reduce the time they retain users' online records.

Since the Article 29 Data Protection Working Party's decision may threaten ''the golden goose'' of the broader business of internet advertising,
which uses customers' online records to offer personally targeted ads, the big search engines will not be pleased at all.

There is only one search engine that already and easily meets the new requirements: Ixquick.com.

Ixquick.com deletes its users' search data (including IP addresses) within 48 hours and has done so for the last 2 years.
Furthermore Ixquick does not set any uniquely identifying cookies or share your privacy details with 3rd parties.
All others do.
