How does Brave Search work and protect my privacy?
LMSA features an optional Web Search powered by Brave Search to retrieve real-time context from the live web. Brave Search operates on its own independent index and is designed from the ground up for privacy: it does not track your search queries, save your search history, or build personal profiles. All queries are sent over secure HTTPS connections, and LMSA does not attach any personally identifiable info, keeping your searches private and anonymous.
