I found this passage [0] in the DDG help:

> Ad clicks are managed by Microsoft’s ad network.

> Microsoft and DuckDuckGo have partnered [..] Microsoft Advertising will use your full IP address and user-agent string so that it can properly process the ad click and charge the advertiser

It seems DDG is not that privacy focused when it comes to ads.
