Waterfox contains proprietary Google Play libraries, and doesn't include any hardening when compared to standard Firefox on Android. It's a completely different project with a different set of goals than IronFox or Mull.

You would be far better off using standard Firefox over Waterfox, in terms of privacy & security.
