Searx ( / sɜːrtʃ /; stylized as searX) is a free and open-source metasearch engine, [4] available under the GNU Affero General Public License version 3, with the aim of protecting the privacy of its users. [5] [6] [7] To this end, Searx does not share users' IP addresses or search history with the search engines from which it gathers results.

Searx is an open source metasearch engine that gathers results from other search engines while simultaneously respecting your privacy. Even better, you control which search engines Searx pulls results from, as well as specifying the categories for search results.

Searx is a free internet metasearch engine which aggregates results from more than 70 search services. Users are neither tracked nor profiled. Unlike some older searx addons, this one uses a secure, encrypted connection (HTTPS/SSL). In addition, searches are submitted via POST, preventing the queries from appearing in your browser history files.

Searx is an open source tool that gives you full control of your own private search engine. All you need is a private server and a little bit of command line judo to run through the installation process.
