Safari on my macOS Mojave v. 10.14.6 has stopped allowing me to open a web site that I've used for years. The site will open on Firefox but that is not my regular browser. What is the problem and how can I fix it? I'm new at this

I'm using Safari on my macOS Mojave v.10.14.6. It stopped opening up a web site that I have used for years. I cannot get into my account on Consumer Cellular on Safari. I can get into it on Firefox but not Safari. All other web sites works on Safari. Thanks,.
