Why is Startpage.com listed in bottom part of the website?

Hello,

My question is, while Volla is filled with these buzzwords, free open source, privacy, freedom it is rather interesting to see Startpage.com, listed in the very bottom of the website. While I apparently Startpage.com did offer proxy Google-search, it is nowadays owned by Privacy Group One, a subsidiary of System1, advertising company. Also Startmail, also operated by the same bunch is in the related logos part?

So privacy, freedom, and all, with a dash of marketing, user tracking?

Re: Why is Startpage.com listed in bottom part of the website?

Thank you for your question. We have built and are looking to expand an alliance of partners who are committed to privacy protection for their products. In this way, we aim to provide Volla Phone users with the most comprehensive data and privacy protection offering possible.

Startpage offers an anonymous and thus non-personalized secure search on the Internet. While DuckDuckGo works with the Bing index, Startpage works with the Google index.

In the Volla Launcher, it is possible to select the DuckDuckGo, Startpage and MetaGer search engines for the Internet search with Springboard. MetaGer is also our partner.

We do not collect any data on our website, nor do our partners. It is simply information about our partners.
