Translation
privacy
Definition
Privacy refers to the state of being free from public attention or intrusion into one's personal life, especially in relation to one's home, communications, or private affairs. It is a fundamental concept in modern society, often associated with the right to control access to personal information and to maintain a private space. Privacy is valued in both physical contexts, such as having a quiet room away from others, and digital contexts, such as protecting personal data online. Respecting privacy means not interfering with someone's personal matters without their consent.
