I have seen many Ads-on and like to know if company provides Ads-on and it is used as input for search engines what will happen?

Can this provider track inputs inside search engines? What are limitation for users that use these Ads-on?

1. You are using an old, unsupported version of Firefox, you should install the latest version.

2. Add-ons which are hosted at the official Mozilla Add-ons website are screened for "trackers" and other security exploits. Add-ons that a user installs from a 3rd party website aren't screened by Mozilla.

1. I had many issues as Ads-on are not supporting new versions and are must for developers. 2. What does it mean 'are screened'

Some complain that too fast version have too many mistakes and ads-on do not follow progress or mistakes.

This is the only reason that I have to use the old one.
