Every day is data privacy day for us. And we don\u2019t mean this as a gimmick. Mozilla isn\u2019t your average tech company. We are a not-for-profit dedicated to keeping the web open and accessible to all. Privacy and safeguarding your personal data is the core of our mission. And of our products. Firefox Quantum and everything else we do from policy to advocacy or fun social media activities are rooted in that principle.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about what we do and what you can do to protect your privacy here are some events and tips.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Watch the Data Privacy Day 2018 Live Stream<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Today, Mozilla will be participating in the U.S. National Cyber Security Alliance Privacy Aware event, to talk more about how to respect privacy, safeguard data and enable trust. You can watch the <a href=\"http:\/\/staysafeonline.org\/dpd18-live\">event here<\/a>, where I\u2019ll give an update on my recent <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tedxmarin.org\/speaker\/denelle-dixon\/\">TEDx talk<\/a> about the problem with online privacy and the importance of taking control of our online lives.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Promote strong privacy policy<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>We continue to work on policies that support privacy around the world: advocating for what <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/netpolicy\/2017\/11\/14\/trai-data-protection-comment\/\">India\u2019s first data protection law<\/a> should look like, helping <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/netpolicy\/2017\/10\/12\/mozilla-releases-recommendations-draft-eu-eprivacy-regulation\/\">guide the ePrivacy Regulation<\/a> in the EU, and working to ensure that the U.S. government collaborates with companies to <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/netpolicy\/2017\/11\/15\/white-house-releases-new-vep-charter\/\">protect your data from bad actors<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Browse tracking-free with Firefox Quantum\u2019s latest release <\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Earlier this week, we released the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/channel\/desktop\/#firefox\">latest version of Firefox Quantum<\/a> which includes opt-in Tracking Protection. We\u2019ve <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/blog\/2017\/11\/20\/firefox-private-browsing-vs-chrome-incognito\/\">studied Tracking Protection<\/a> and found that, in addition to protecting their privacy, users actually have a better, faster experience with the web when pages load without trackers. That is why in November we upped the ante in Firefox Quantum and began offering our users the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/firefox\/tracking-protection-always-on\/\">option to turn on Tracking Protection all the time. 24-7.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><b>Protect your privacy with the Data Detox Kit<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Mozilla is a proud partner of Tactical Tech, whose <a href=\"https:\/\/datadetox.myshadow.org\/detox\">Data Detox<\/a> will help you remove any toxic data build up. It\u2019s an 8-day cleanse, and with just a small daily time commitment, you finish feeling refreshed and rejuvenated online and IRL. The detox is was an integral part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/theglassroom.org\/\">Glass Room<\/a>, an interactive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=k47lhUmj5ho\">exhibition<\/a> that highlights people\u2019s relationship with the Internet.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Let\u2019s protect privacy and make peanut brittle!<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>To help bring the important issues of data security and privacy to a general audience, on Friday, January 26, we\u2019re also celebrating <b>Peanut Brittle Day<\/b>. Just like you shouldn\u2019t use the same amount of all the ingredients, you shouldn\u2019t use the same password for all your sites. How do you keep track off all your different passwords?
