Google lying underneath Duckduckgo?

I 'installed duckduckgo on my PC. I first called it up via Google. Perhaps I shouldn't have done. The question is, even if I start ddg on a clear www address, is there a chance Google is lurking 'underneath'? i.e. is there a need to stop Google being my opening screen in FireFox?

Obviously I would open another folder which does not call the Google hello screen, but them being them, I wondered if they'd be especially interested in my ddg use and somehow be in the background. Oh, my, I'm getting parenoid.

I'm one of those that's not that bothered, but curiosity got the better of me and I'm trying ddg out.
