Hi Christopher,

First, to clarify that Firefox is your web browser, while Google is a search engine you use within it.

Regarding Mozilla's data security, Firefox is highly encrypted. For instance, when you use Firefox Sync to sync your bookmarks or passwords, your data is fully end-to-end encrypted. This means not even Mozilla can read it. Is it secure?.

However, since you are looking for an alternative search engine to Google, you can change it.

You can choose from different search providers, such as Google or Bing, when you search the web using Firefox. To change the default search engine that Firefox uses:

  1. Click the menu button Fx89menuButton and choose Settings.
  2. Select Search in the left pane.
  3. Use the drop-down menu under Default Search Engine to choose the search engine you wish to use by default.
    Fx122settings-DefaultSearchEngineDropdown

For more information, see Manage Firefox search settings.

Let us know if this helps!
