How that compares to other browsers

Of the 6 browsers compared here, DuckDuckGo declares collecting data in 3 categories against a median of 4. It declares sharing no data with third parties.

A higher count is not automatically worse — an app that syncs your own data between your devices declares collection just as an ad-funded one does. The sharing column is the sharper signal, because it means the data left the developer.
