First off, be very skeptical of anything Techrights says. In my experience, it's the Natural News of libre software. Also, the article mentions Will Hill, a pretentious guy who hangs out on Google+ and Diaspora. He constantly boasts that proprietary software is failing, calls Windows 8 "Vista H8" (referring not to freedom problems, but to the silly drama about the interface change in this version of Windows), and thinks that compiling binaries of libre software for popular proprietary systems somehow encourages people to switch to those proprietary systems.

With that being said, it really doesn't matter. Entrusting your privacy to DuckDuckGo, Ixquick, Google, or any other server would be a mistake, regardless of what their privacy policy is. You should do your searches with Tor, or on a computer that many different people use, so no one can connect the search to you.
