Law

the right to be let alone, protecting a person's private life from intrusion and publicity.

In law, privacy refers to the right to be let alone, protecting a person's private life from intrusion and publicity. This meaning comes from Warren (1890) in Harvard Law Review. Here privacy is not selective control of access to the self or to one's group, regulated through personal space and territory; nor a mathematical guarantee that the result of an analysis reveals almost nothing about whether any one person's data was included.[1]
