Trying to get into a privacy page. The same page as opening comes up. No privacy mask to indicate I am there.

Hello, check if you have firefox to "Never remember history", go from 3-bar menu on your right-up > Options > Privacy > History > Firefox will > Never remember history.

If you have set that, then you are in permanent private browsing and the purple mask is not visible :-)

thank you
