We’re simplifying how extensions gets consent to collect data

In 2025 we will launch a new data consent experience for extensions, built into the Firefox add-on installation flow itself. This will dramatically reduce the:

  1. development effort required to be compliant with Firefox data policies
  2. confusion users faces when installing extensions by providing a more consistent experience, giving them more confidence and control around the data collected or transmitted
  3. effort it takes AMO reviewers to evaluate an extension version to ensure it’s compliant with our data collection policies
