The one that isn't a giant, but has been up and coming for a number of years now is duckduckgo. You don't have to give away your life history to do a search. No, it's not a giant, but provides good results quickly. Don't let name fool you. They have a pretty simple privacy policy.

"DuckDuckGo does not collect or share personal information. That is our privacy policy in a nutshell. The rest of this page tries to explain why you should care."
