About Gungle

Gungle is a metasearch engine, aggregating the results of other search engines while not storing information about its users.

Gungle is forked from the SearXNG project.

Why use it?

• Gungle may not offer you as personalized results as Google, but it doesn’t generate a profile about you.
• Gungle doesn’t care about what you search for, never shares anything with a third-party, and it can’t be used to compromise you.

If you do care about privacy, want to be a conscious user, or otherwise believe in digital freedom, make Gungle your default search engine!

How do I set it as the default search engine?

Gungle supports OpenSearch. For more information on changing your default search engine, see your browser’s documentation:

• Firefox
• Microsoft Edge - Behind the link, you will also find some useful instructions for Chrome and Safari.
• Chromium-based browsers only add websites that the user navigates to without a path.

When adding a search engine, there must be no duplicates with the same name. If you encounter a problem where you cannot add the search engine, you can either:

• remove the duplicate (default name: Gungle.us) or
• contact the owner to give the instance a different name than the default.

How does it work?

Gungle is a fork from the well-known Searx & SearXNG metasearch engine which was in turn inspired by the Seeks project. It provides basic privacy by mixing your queries with searches on other platforms without storing search data. Gungle can be added to your browser’s search bar; moreover, it can be set as the default search engine.

The stats page contains some useful anonymous usage statistics about the engines used.

Thanks for making the intertnet more decentralized. The more decentralized the internet is, the more freedom we have!
