I've made a home page for Firefox with HTML, CSS and JavaScript and I'd like to allow it to store data in localStorage over browsing sessions in Private Browsing. The page is located at file:///C:/Users/<user>/.../homePage/index.html. If there is no way to do this I will also be happy with any other ways to save data over browsing sessions (not necessary with localStorage).

Private browsing doesn't keep or store information it was intended to clear everything when closed. It isn't intended to do what your asking for here. FF is a set default program settings anything beyond that is up to the user to customize or program themselves for their usage.
