Why does any of you need to search and be online in secret?

Hi

This does not sound like an issue with Firefox for Android, but I will do my best to help.

People have many, perfectly innocent reasons to use Private Browsing. These can range from not wanting others to know about presents or surprises that are being bought online, to making sure that advertisers are not using your personal information to make money (have a read of this).

I hope this puts your mind at ease.
