User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:75.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/75.0
Steps to reproduce:
I logged into my webseite in private mode. After that i opened a new tab and closed it in same mode.
Actual results:
After closing the new tab i tried to send some requests from my logged-in website. But i was redirected to the login page as there were no session information.
Expected results:
My expection would be that the session is valid yet. I have noticed this behavior is only on iOS mobile devices (tested on iPhone). I tested this on Android, Windows and Linux but i was still logged in which i expected. I expect that behavior on iOS as well.

Tested on v27.0 (18428) on iPhone Xr.
I followed the STR:
- Go to google.com
- Login to google account
- Open a new tab
- Go to google. com (I was still logged in to google account)
- Close all private tabs but don't leave Private Browsing
- Open a new tab and go to google.com
After step 6) I was logged out of google accounts. This is the correct behavior as we don't store cookies in Private Browsing. This is also the behavior for Chrome in Incognito Mode.
Hope this answers your concern and thanks for the feedback.

The Problem is even if you do not close the google-tab which you have logged in in private mode, you will be logged out after closing any other tab in this mode.

Could you please provide accurate steps to get tot that state. I am not reproducing it from my Steps to Reproduce.
Reproduced on (iPhone 8, iOS Version 12.4, Firefox Version 27.0 (18428))
1.) Open a Website in Private Mode
2.) Login to that Website
3.) Open a new private Tab
4.) Close the new Tab
5.) Submit any Form on the Page from Tab1
And you will get thrown back to the login Page of that Site.
