    EU Awards First Privacy Seal to Online Search Engine Ixquick.com

    The first ever European Privacy Seal for ICT products or IT-based services was awarded to ixquick.com. The seal guarantees that the company is in compliance with European privacy laws and data protection regimes. The announcement cited a lack of trust on the part of Internet users due to the potential for surveillance as a factor in the award.
