Firefox Monitor Terms & Privacy by Mozilla

MozillaUpdated 9 Dec 2025

This document outlines the terms and privacy policy for Mozilla's Firefox Monitor service. It explains how the service helps users check if their email addresses have been compromised in data breaches, detailing features like Basic Scans, Full Reports, and Breach Alerts. The policy also emphasizes user responsibilities for online safety and describes how user data is handled.

Firefox Monitor Terms & Privacy

Version 1.0, effective September 25, 2018

Introduction

Firefox Monitor is a service provided by Mozilla to promote online safety. We strongly encourage people not to reuse passwords because—if any of those accounts are compromised—then hackers can access other accounts using the same account credentials. Because account credentials are often reused when registering for services, we think it’s important to know which accounts have been compromised in a publicly disclosed data breach.

Features

Using your email address, you can do a Basic Scan on our website or sign up to receive a Full Report, Breach Alerts, and Safety Tips.

Basic Scan: These results display most publicly known breaches. They exclude “Sensitive Breaches” (those including minors’ data or participants of adult and dating sites) in order to protect the privacy of those account holders.

Full Report: This includes a complete list of publicly known hacks, including Sensitive Breaches.

Breach Alerts: This notifies you if your email address appears in a new data breach.

Safety Tips: This sends you occasional online safety tips from Mozilla.

Your Responsibilities

If you become aware that your account credentials have been compromised, you should immediately update your passwords and any other credentials for those accounts, as well as other services using the same or similar account information. It is your responsibility to protect your online accounts using strong and different passwords, security questions, two-factor authentication, password managers, and other safety measures.

Privacy

When Mozilla receives information from you, our Mozilla Privacy Policy describes how we handle that information. Here are things you should know about Firefox Monitor:

If you sign up, we (and our email providers SalesForce and Amazon) receive your email address to contact you in connection with the Firefox Monitor Service, which includes Full Reports, Breach Alerts, and Safety Tips. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Your and Our Rights

The Websites and Communications Terms of Use governs Mozilla websites and emails we send, including those of Firefox Monitor. It includes an indemnification, disclaimer, and limitation on liability. Although Firefox Monitor and Have I Been Pwned?, strive to have current data, there is no guarantee that either will have complete or timely records of all public data breaches.

Templates in our curated library are professionally drafted for US or UK law. The wider library comes from the GitLaw community and public sources - a solid starting point, but check any template fits your situation before you rely on it.

Mostly US and UK law. Some templates use general commercial terms that work across jurisdictions, and many note which law they're written for.

It depends on the situation. Templates work well for routine business agreements. For anything involving significant money, complex IP, employment, or areas you're unsure about, it's worth getting professional advice before you sign. GitLaw provides templates and tools, not legal advice.

Open any template in GitLaw and describe the change you want in the chat — 'make clause 4 mutual' or 'add a 30-day notice period', for example. GitLaw drafts the revised language and shows it as a suggested edit. You accept, reject, or keep editing from there.

Yes. Upload a Word, PDF, or Markdown file and GitLaw will open it in the editor. You can review, edit, or chat with GitLaw about it the same way you would with any template from the library.
