In order to fetch search results from backup providers anonymously, a hidden renderer must be embedded to execute the scripts required to render the results. The renderer will use an off-the-record profile for briefly preserving cookie state, which will be subsequently destroyed shortly after the results have been rendered/fetched.

If a user is opted in to Web Discovery or Brave Search fallback mixing, the hidden renderer will be used to fetch the results anonymously.
