Announcing Kagi Privacy Pass

Kagi now supports Privacy
Pass, an IETF-standardized
protocol ensuring your
searches are technically unlinkable to your account.

Read all about why this matters and the details of implementation in our
announcement blog post!

Privacy Pass support is provided:

• Natively for Orion browser users
  (macOS/iOS/iPadOS). On iOS, make sure to have version 1.3.17 and above
  (expected to roll out globally today) and update your macOS Orion to
  version 0.99.131.
• Natively through Kagi App for
  Android
  (make sure to have version 0.29, expected to roll out globally today)
• Browser extension for
  Firefox
  or
  Chrome

A few important details:

• Privacy Pass implementation is fully
  open-sourced
  for transparency and community collaboration
• Kagi Privacy Pass is available for the Professional, Ultimate, Family,
  and Team plans.
• Limitations:
  • It's not available for Trial/Starter plans
  • Privacy Pass mode disables account-specific features, like domain
    personalisaton (as we do not know which user is searching)
  • Privacy Pass mode is supported for Kagi Search in this initial
    phase, we will add support other services in the coming weeks. Check
    the blog post FAQ
    section for more details!

Kagi is redefining privacy in search. Try it now!
