anonymous search
Nameless online lookup
Anonymous search is an internet search conducted without revealing the user's identity, location, or browsing history to search engines or third parties.
Privacy-focused search engines and browser modes offer this feature to prevent tracking and targeted advertising: I use anonymous search when researching sensitive topics.
The anonymity is often partial—complete invisibility online is difficult to achieve.
