We partner with adMarketplace, and Yelp, and AccuWeather to provide sponsored suggestions that enhance your browsing experience with helpful, context-based information. For transparency, sponsored suggestions are clearly labeled as Sponsored meaning Mozilla receives revenue when users engage with these suggestions, which in turn helps fund Firefox development and other Mozilla initiatives. Through Yelp, we offer recommendations for local businesses and services, such as restaurants and shops. AccuWeather enables us to provide weather-related suggestions, including local forecasts and current conditions. The AccuWeather feature is being rolled out gradually and may not yet be available to all users.
In addition, Firefox provides suggestions from Wikipedia, which are not sponsored. Wikipedia results are provided to enrich your browsing experience with useful, community-driven information.
