MAXIMUM PRIVACY
Thanks to its built-in tracking protection, the Cliqz Browser prevents your personal information from being transferred to advertisers or other third parties when you visit a website. And you can see immediately how many data collectors and ads Cliqz has blocked for you.

Cliqz is privacy by design: Nothing and nobody can draw conclusions from your browsing behavior. All personal identifying information remains only on your device, in your possession and under your control. You can delete them at any time at the push of a button.


INDEPENDENT PRIVATE SEARCH ENGINE
Use the built-in Cliqz Search Engine (Beta) to search the web completely independently and privately – even by voice command via Siri if you prefer. Unlike most other search engines, Cliqz does not rely on the US search giants Google or Bing for its results but uses its own search index. Having more than two search indexes is crucial for diversity, fair competition and a healthy balance of power.


AD BLOCKER
Benefit from faster loading websites without ads and clutter.


COOKIE POP-UP BLOCKER
Hide annoying cookie pop-ups and automatically deny consent to data collection if possible.


PHISHING PROTECTION
Protect yourself from fraudulent websites that want to steal your passwords and account information.


FORGET MODE
Use forget tabs if you don't want your browsing history saved on your machine. For adult pages, Cliqz will do this for you automatically. You're welcome!


CLIQZ TAB WITH MOST VISITED WEBSITES AND NEWS
Open a new tab to search privately with Cliqz, to go back to your most visited websites via direct links, or to read the latest news. Cliqz can also read out the top news to you.


With Cliqz you have an easy-to-use app for fast, safe, and carefree browsing.
