How trustworthy is Mozilla Firefox with user accounts and data? (self.firefox)

I want to sync things between 2 computers and apparently the only way to do this is to login to Firefox. Preferably I want to avoid tracking and stuff but sometimes it’s just a bit inconvenient. Is Mozilla trustworthy in terms of privacy with logging in, like data sales, especially data breach with passwords?

Mozilla doesn't sell your data, and I've never heard any news about Firefox Sync having a breach, your data is safe from attackers and Mozilla themselves with Sync.
