who says that about any search engine? can you trust them? searXNG is usually run by random people who are less likely to use your data than a larger search company
At least with Google it wont be an individual that can open my data (most likely).
Probably only the AI or whatever can actually read any of it directly.
There is also a list of publicly operated SearXNG instances at https://searx.space/. We host the one at https://search.freestater.org/, and there are plenty of other good ones.

Who says they are securely operated and don’t store any data??

If you’re using a shared IP, it doesn’t matter.
You are using a VPN or Tor, right?!?
