637482 - Broken Link to Privacy Policy: 404 Page Not Found

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Alex Fowler]

Unfortunately, the link to the privacy policy from within the 4.0b5 version of Firefox Mobile gives me a 404 Page Not Found. 

Here's the path: 
Under Preferences
Click About Firefox
Click Privacy Policy
404: Page Not Found

Does this need to be a confidential bug?

Comment 2

The current link in Fennec is:
https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/legal/privacy/firefox/mobile/

Do we have a separate privacy policy for mobile, or should we just link to the Firefox privacy policy?
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/legal/privacy/firefox.html

Mike, what do we need to do here?

I don't think we have a separate policy.  If we don't, we should do two things:

1. fix the link in firefox before GA - we don't need extra redirects
2. set up a redirect for https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/legal/privacy/firefox/mobile/ (maybe)

If we can fix this in the prefs for fennec that's the main thing.  Setting up a redirect for a 404 in a beta probably isn't necessary but we can do that too.

Seems like http://www.mozilla.org/about/policies/ and also Google Search results point to www.mozilla.com/legal/privacy/firefox/mobile/ (see attachment) which now shows a 404. Webdev, can you restore the page?

Here's the mobile friendly version of the Firefox privacy policy:
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/m/privacy.html

This is the one that we should use.
