# Accessing via Tor

> Tor support has just been launched!
> [We welcome your early feedback.](https://help.kagi.com/kagi/support-and-community/)

Kagi is proud to make our services available through the Tor Network, adding an extra layer of privacy for our users.

You can access Kagi via the following Onion link:

```
http://kagi2pv5bdcxxqla5itjzje2cgdccuwept5ub6patvmvn3qgmgjd6vid.onion/
```

If you are just getting started with Tor, you can read our setup guide below to learn more.

## What is Tor?

Tor (The Onion Router) is a privacy-focused network that enables anonymous communication by routing your internet traffic through a series of servers (nodes).
It is widely used to enhance privacy and bypass censorship.

For more information, visit the official Tor Project website: [What is Tor?](https://www.torproject.org/about/overview).

## Setting Up Tor

To access our service via Tor, you need to install the Tor Browser. Follow these steps:

1. Download the Tor Browser from the official website: [Download Tor Browser](https://www.torproject.org/download/).
2. Install the browser by following the instructions for your operating system.
3. Launch the Tor Browser and connect to the Tor network.

For detailed setup instructions, refer to the Tor Project's [User Manual](https://tb-manual.torproject.org/).

## Accessing Kagi

Once you have the Tor Browser set up, follow these steps to access our search capabilities:

1. Open the Tor Browser.
2. Enter our onion link in the address bar: `http://kagi2pv5bdcxxqla5itjzje2cgdccuwept5ub6patvmvn3qgmgjd6vid.onion/`
3. Use our search functionality as you would on the regular web.

## Limitations
1. Third-party sign in not working (redirecting to kagi.com instead of the .onion link)
