Private mode isn't working on ebay?

A family member has an ebay account that we shared but I also have my own personal one as well. I have the shared one on regular mode and I use private mode to use my personal account.

When I'm searching for things on my ebay account in private mode, a lot of the items I look up show up on the private mode show as being viewed on the shared account?

Another issue with ebay, now I wasn't on private browsing mode when this happen, so I wasn't logged in my personal account, but I went to list an item for the shared account, and for some reason in the images it imprinted the name from my personal account?

Does anyone know why my private browser isn't being so private when it comes to ebay?

The search suggestions in the url bar do not block from pulling from history and cookies.

Where are you seeing the suggestions? Also do you have do not track enabled? Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track

Really? So that means I can't prevent it then? :/ Thanks for letting me know.~

I took your suggestion to check the do no track thing, but didn't work to prevent it, oh well.
