Thus, it does not matter if a public or private instance handles the request, because it is anonymized in both cases. IP addresses will be the IP of the insance. But searx can be ocnfigured to use proxy or Tor. `Result proxy `__ is supported, too. Searx does not serve adds or tracking content unlike most search services. So private data is not forwarded to third parties who might monetize it. Besides protecting users from search services, both referring page and search query are hidden from visited result pages.
