I'm not quite sure how to pull this data - from everything I understand, private channels and their details aren't announced to the network by design. I'm curious if you have any more context on how this data could be helpful?

Private channels aren’t announced. However for the time being, their channel ids are deterministically derived from the funding tx. Theoretically, you could scan the blockchain looking for funding tx and probe for private channels.
