I'm currently using this one (Translate web pages). I think it is not the most privacy friendly, but is really useful. It also works for mobile Firefox (actually I use Mull)

It's support for mobile is really cool. Fennec (or Firefox Nightly) with extensions is really good experience. Thank you mozilla for extensions support. Killer feature.

It says it uses google. It's a nono for privacy

It can use Google ☝️ With some preparations: VPN, Chameleon (another) extension for spoofing the browser profile, everything will be fine.

Except if the website contains identifying information, like a username.
Google translate is not a privacy focused solution.
