Privacy Policy

Our Commitment to Privacy

At Hydra, privacy isn't just a feature—it's our foundation. This privacy policy explains how we handle your data, which is simple: we don't.

What We Don't Collect

We do not collect, store, or process:

  • Search queries or search history
  • IP addresses or location data
  • Browser fingerprints or device information
  • Cookies or tracking identifiers
  • Personal information of any kind
  • Account data or user profiles
  • Browsing behavior or click patterns

Anonymous Accounts

If you choose to create an account with Hydra, we maintain our commitment to anonymity. Your account stores zero personal information. We don't ask for your email, name, phone number, or any identifying information. Accounts are purely functional and contain no data that could be used to identify you.

How We Protect You

We protect your privacy through:

  • No logging of search queries or user activity
  • No use of tracking cookies or analytics
  • Encrypted connections for all searches
  • No data sharing with third parties
  • No advertising networks or trackers
  • Complete anonymity by design

Third-Party Services

When you perform a search, we query external search APIs to provide results. These queries are made anonymously and do not include any identifying information about you. We do not share your IP address or any other data with these services.

Data Retention

We don't retain any data because we don't collect any data. Your searches exist only in the moment you make them. Once you close your browser or navigate away, there is no trace of your activity on our servers.

Changes to This Policy

If we ever change our privacy practices, we will update this policy and notify users through our website. However, our core commitment to privacy will never change: we will never collect, store, or share your personal data.
