It includes things like your browsing history, passwords, bookmarks, and settings. As long as you still have access to the device and haven't erased the data, it will remain available. ==Encrypted data== When you use Firefox’s sync feature, your data is stored on Mozilla's secure servers and encrypted for protection. This encrypted data can be accessed from any Firefox browser that device you sign in to (on Desktop or Mobile) with your Mozilla account. ==Impact on data after a password reset== If you previously enabled an account recovery key and you use it to reset your password, you will retain access to your encrypted data on Mozilla servers. However, if you forget your password and reset it without using an account recovery key, your encrypted data will be erased for security reasons. Your existing browser data remains unaffected and can be used to replace your encrypted data after you’ve reset your account password. Resetting your password does not affect your subscriptions or payment information, as that information is stored separately.
