Right now, after the Cliqz and remotely installed addon controversies, and the fact that Firefox Focus sends analytics data to a third party (Adjust Inc.), I'd say Apple is more privacy focused than Mozilla.

Could you clarify what is the third party that Mozilla is sending analytics to?
Firefox Focus (but not Firefox Klar) sends usage data to Google Analytics.
Mozilla has a promise from Google that Google will not use this data for their own analysis. If you do not trust Google to honor this agreement, Mozilla employees said on a GitHub issue about this, you should stop using Mozilla products.
I am sure the mobile devs will jump in and give an authoritative answer, but you can refuse to send usage data to Mozilla by toggle off in Focus’s settings.

Firefox sending my data to a marketing company should not be on by default... Heck, it should not even be an option.
