I believe this is because Safari Private mode does not support local storage which is where we store your access token.

That makes sense. Not worth fixing that I suppose. Personally, I am logged in to my personal gmail all the time, so instead of logging/switching profiles it's easier to view it in private mode, but if that's just a Safari Private Mode issue that's a very small impact of people.
