About eTools Private Search

eTools Private Search delivers the best web results from major search engines, securely and in full privacy.


Core features:
• search the web extensively without leaving traces;
• clear and easy-to-use search interface;
• keep track of recent searches;
• check the current status of a web page anonymousely;
• extensive search configuration, for example by country, by language, etc.

What we understand by security and privacy:
• complete anonymity: no user tracking and no collection or sharing of user data whatsoever;
• search and status requests use HTTPS (SSL/TLS) with certificate pinning and PFS (perfect forward secrecy);
• app certificate validation, integrity tests, no public data (e.g. on SD-card), encryption of all private data, screenshot optionally allowed, optional root access check and much more;
• does not use a web browser component: besides the advantage of reduced data usage and a native Android user interface, possible privacy and/or security attack vectors are minimized, e.g. no problem with CVE-2014-6041 or CVE-2015-0204 (Freak Attack);
• reduced possibility of censorship by using multiple search sources (metasearch, federated search);
• both the Swiss development company Comcepta AG and its eTools.ch web server are located in Switzerland, which employs one of the strongest privacy protection laws worldwide.

For maximum privacy, e.g. when accessing found web pages with a web browser, we recommend to use in addition a sophisticated Tor solution, such as Orbot and Orweb.

This app is based on our metasearch engine eTools.ch (https://www.etools.ch) that is powered by our federated search solution EnterpriseMetasearch® (http://www.enterprise-metasearch.com).

by Q####:

Performed and delivered in realtime: bad. 85% searches go to one country, often called residence, but yours go worldwide: bad. 75% searches are addressed to one language, called Bluetooth scan, yours are addressed to worldwide (roaming) servers: bad. Simulations go wrong, but our searches may cover your private ones: bad. If opening a magnet link with an automated reader secretly installed on our phones no more privacy: bad. Orbot may help if phones are rooted. And previously instructed to do "our" job.

Your search queries, selected search results, IP addresses -- all this can reveal a lot of private, sensitive information about you. With the recent outbreak of revelations about virtually everyone eavesdropping on everyone else, it's no wonder that a search tool that puts privacy as its primary goal is a must-have app. eTools Private Search is actually more than just privacy. It has a sleek, fast user interface, searches many search providers in parallel and combines search results into easy to use and intuitive rankings. It's a great personal assistant that won't stab you when you turn around. Highly recommended.
