Independent search engine from the United Kingdom
United KingdomFree plan Ownership reviewed, controller unresolvedScope verdict
This service remains visible for context, but it is not counted or recommended as a European-controlled option.
Mojeek is a privacy focused search engine from the United Kingdom. Unlike most alternative search engines it does not resell someone else's results: it runs its own web crawler, its own index and its own ranking algorithm. Its privacy policy rules out tracking, so searches stay anonymous.
Mojeek owns and operates its servers in data centres in the United Kingdom, powered by renewable energy, with closed loop air cooling and a power usage effectiveness of 1.2. That independent, low energy stack makes it a European alternative to the American search engines for anyone who wants results from a separate index.
Mojeek is free to use and is funded by advertising, as most search engines are.
Data and operations
Verified operational dependencies, shown separately from ownership and from the service's core data hosting.
Public website
Why this matters
Public DNS routes website visits through Custodian Data Centres. Visitor IP addresses and request metadata can reach this non-European provider; this does not identify the core service's data location.
Incoming business email
Why this matters
Published MX records route incoming business email through Fastmail. Correspondent details and message content can therefore enter this non-European provider's systems; MX does not reveal the configured storage region.
