DuckDuckGo introduces its latest innovation, the Privacy Pro bundled service, marking a significant stride in enhancing user privacy. This comprehensive package comprises a VPN, personal data removal service, and round-the-clock identity theft restoration. Initially launched in the U.S., subscribers can access these robust privacy tools for just $9.99 per month or opt for an annual subscription at $99.99, seamlessly integrating with DuckDuckGo’s acclaimed search engine and browser.
The cornerstone of this offering is DuckDuckGo’s proprietary VPN, meticulously crafted to prioritize user privacy. Operating directly within the DuckDuckGo browser, the VPN boasts zero data logging and accommodates up to five simultaneous device connections across 13 server locations in the U.S., Europe, and Canada. Leveraging the renowned WireGuard protocol ensures optimal speed and security, with plans for expansion to include additional servers and global locations.
Subscribers also benefit from a cutting-edge personal data removal feature, empowering them to reclaim control over their digital footprint. Through automated scans and removal requests, Privacy Pro diligently scrubs user information from various platforms, with ongoing monitoring to prevent data resurgence. Furthermore, the service equips users with an identity theft restoration solution in collaboration with Iris, offering 24/7 support and comprehensive assistance in mitigating identity theft incidents.
