Not according to the console view (F12) for images in the browser. You can also verify this with your firewall and dns lookups.

Also uses bing.net, mm.bing.net for safe search and explicit.bing.net for not safe search, but with a GUID linked to every image it pulls in, so there is still traceability and thus accountability, ergo its not private.

I've also noticed there are times when cookies are not cleared on exit with some websites despite browser settings being set to clear cookies on exit. Theres alot more surveillance going on under the hood in the chromium browsers than meets the eye.
Anyway it doesnt matter this thread has been bunked off the first page so sheeple wont wake up.
