In the Mozilla firefox browser, cookies are collected for specific reasons and explain to all users the reasons. They collect various data to improve the performance and stability of all users, determine the default search provider, recommend relevant content, increase security for all users, crash reports, measure and support their marketing. It is also necessary to clarify what data they collect for these reasons.

Improve the performance and stability of all users: Firefox collects interaction data related to this domain as browser cookies. It collects data such as the number of open tabs, the number of websites visited, the number of plugins, and the duration of the session. They also store technical data as another type of data.

How does Mozilla learn information about firefox users?

They obtain the information of users in the following cases:

  • when you submit your personal information directly (e.g. When you send a crash report)
  • through products and services (e.g. when they check the servers to see if Firefox is up to date)
  • When someone else gives you your information
  • when they try to obtain further information about you (e.g. When they receive ip information to find out which country and in which language it is used in some services)

What do they do with the information obtained?

Mozilla Firefox can use the information we give as much as we do. In some cases, they may also share browser cookies with other people, which they usually use to facilitate product improvements and services. These situations can be shared with other persons when we give consent to cookies, to process products and services, where legally necessary, with companies with which they have agreements to protect personal data, and when their corporate structure changes.

Of course, all of this happens if we have read our privacy policy and consent for them to share our cookies. If we want to change our preferences, block all cookies, or only allow certain cookies, the sharing of our personal data changes.

We do this from the settings section of the search engines that we usually use to enable our browser cookies. This can sometimes be done in different departments. In some search engines, the cookie activation found in the privacy and security section can sometimes be included in the cookies and data section. The process of clearing a browser cookie may also differ depending on the search engine. And in Mozilla Firefox, we will tell you how.
