Mozilla is a non-profit technology organization founded in 1998. It operates globally and focuses on building software and advocating for an open, accessible internet. The organization is known for its Firefox web browser and a suite of privacy-focused products, including Mozilla VPN, Mozilla Monitor for data breach alerts, and Firefox Relay for email masking.
The company's work centers on several technical domains: web browsing, privacy technologies, open-source software development, and AI development. Its structure is mission-driven, guided by the principle that "the internet is people, not profit," which prioritizes its public-interest goals over shareholder demands. This is supported by a global community of contributors.
With over 25 years of operation, Mozilla operates across the technology, internet services, and digital rights advocacy sectors. Its commitment to ethical technology and digital rights is a core aspect of its identity and operational model.
