If you set up the Privoxy to run on the computer you browse from (rather than your ISP's server or some networked computer on a LAN), the proxy will be on 127.0.0.1 (sometimes referred to as 'localhost', which is the special name used by every computer on the Internet to refer to itself) and the port will be 8118 (unless you used the listen-address.

Proxy For Firefox Mac Os 10.10
2.5. What is the proxy address of Privoxy?
Firefox For Mac Update
If you set up the Privoxy to run on the computer you browse from (rather than your ISP's server or some networked computer on a LAN), the proxy will be on 127.0.0.1 (sometimes referred to as 'localhost', which is the special name used by every computer on the Internet to refer to itself) and the port will be 8118 (unless you used the listen-address config option to tell Privoxy to run on a different port).
When configuring your browser's proxy settings you typically enter the word 'localhost' or the IP address '127.0.0.1' in the boxes next to 'HTTP' and 'Secure' (HTTPS) and then the number '8118' for 'port'. This tells your browser to send all web requests to Privoxy instead of directly to the Internet.
Privoxy can also be used to proxy for a Local Area Network. In this case, your would enter either the IP address of the LAN host where Privoxy is running, or the equivalent hostname, e.g. 192.168.1.1. Port assignment would be same as above. Note that Privoxy doesn't listen on any LAN interfaces by default.
Privoxy does not currently handle any other protocols such as FTP, SMTP, IM, IRC, ICQ, etc.
