Yes, Qwant uses bing api(like ddg).
Just looked it up since I was sure I had read they had their own. On their wikipedia article it says:
so I guess it's both bing and their own thing.
So, ddg and brave also have own indices. But i dont think, that it is matter, anyway they send data to 3rd party services.
