They also double down on this in their FAQ: https://help.kagi.com/kagi/company/faqs.html#i-am-still-worr...
I find their reasoning solid and choose to believe them (for now).
I mean anyone can write anything into a privacy policy and who will enforce they are sticking to them really? Usually we only see what actually happens in the background when there is a breach.
For financial systems we have regular audits so rules like PCI DSS are enforced, but do we have these for search systems?
Dunno, but a "decent" chunk of my time went into vetting our privacy policy for my company because it is something we could be sued over.
So at least lawyers are taking it very seriously.

> Am I supposed to believe that if their backend crashes after a user query, that can’t tell what has been queried?
I'm sure they'll know the query. They just won't know which user made the query.
Thanks for the info nonetheless. I think I'll give it a shot and maybe don't look up how to get rid of bodies - for a friend. Oh, damn, did it again.
