Deleting your Mozilla account
Please see this article to learn how to delete your Mozilla account.
When you delete your Mozilla account, your https://addons.mozilla.org account will also be deleted and all of its associated data is deleted with it. If you later create a new account using the same email address, no add-ons will be associated with it.
Before deleting your account, we recommend that you transfer any add-ons you have developed to a new owner. If you share add-on ownership with other accounts, your account will be removed from the ownership list once it has been deleted.
Frequently asked questions
What happens to my add-ons when I convert to a new Mozilla account?
You will have access to all your add-ons through your new Mozilla account.
Why do I want a Mozilla account?
A Mozilla account is the primary account system used by Firefox, most often used natively to synchronize Firefox services across multiple devices. Even if you don’t use Sync, many Firefox-related services will soon begin migrating over to simplify your sign-in process, making it easier for you to join new services.
Where do I change my password?
Once you have a Mozilla account, you can go to https://accounts.firefox.com, sign in and click next to Password.
