What does privacy mean?

something is private to a person, it usually means there is somethingwithin them that is considered inherently special or personallysensitive. The degree to which private information is exposed

therefore depends on how the public will receive this information,which differs between places and over time. Privacy is broader thansecurity and includes the concepts of appropriate use and protection
