Ignoring the search term being sent, browser and computer info is ALWAYS available to the target site, that is not something Google can even stop. Browser send information on who they are, JavaScript allows probing of what is installed, how big the screen is and all of that fun stuff.
So I don't see how that sentence is even fair at all, Duck Duck Go might stop the search term from being sent (and as a webmaster I'd hate that as it makes it harder to figure out how users are getting to my site), but they can't stop browser and computer info from being sent.
