"Utterly private" is a very odd term here.
At the very least, Apple knows which sites you're signing into, and has the unique e-mail addresses used at those sites, and has likely issued the authentication tokens for those sites. I'm not sure what's "utterly private" about this setup.

Your email isn't revealed to the site, so it's privacy from the site you are signing into. Although I'm sure they are still requesting basic info like name and potentially age.
