Firefox doesn't store form data that you enter and doesn't offer to save passwords in the Password Manager in a PB mode window (tab) if that is what you mean. Firefox can use username and password and other form data that you have saved in a regular (not PB mode) window and fill it in a form.

All other data from a PB mode session is kept in memory during a PB mode session and removed when all PB mode windows are closed.

Thanks for the quick reply. Good to know that.

But is there a way to not let my user name, password or credit card information I enter in regular browser be collected?

Regards Mehran
