How do I log out of Firefox Sync so my work colleagues don't see all my bookmarks when they access the common PC?

I logged into FF Sync at work on the common computer and now I can't log out.

When I open Firefox, all my bookmarks are there for everyone in the office to see and they can see all my passwords for all my email accounts.

How do I sign out?

Using your Sync account on a shared / public PC was a mistake. Sync creates a copy of your Sync data on all devices that you connect to; Sync does not clear that data when you log off those devices.

You can disconnect from the Sync server on that 'common' PC, but that doesn't delete that data that has been synchronized to that 'common' PC.

As FredMcD mentioned, load that https://accounts.firefox.com/settings page and change your Firefox Account password to cut off further access to your Sync Account, so that access via that PC is no possible. But as I mentioned that won't help with your data which is already on that PC. That data will need to be deleted by a user who has ADMIN credentials for that PC.

I accessed the page at home, changed my password and here I am at work, I opened up firefox and all my bookmarks and passwords are displayed here as usual when I access the bookmarks.

I will need to log off here at work; how is that done?

You need to manually remove all unwanted data on each computer/profile.

Wow, what a terrible system!

It really should be password protected.
