Concept information
Preferred term
privacy rights
Definition(s)
- The right to be left alone without unwarranted intrusion by government, media, or other institutions or individuals. Although the Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution guarantee the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, it was not until the 1965 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Griswold v. Connecticut—which overturned a state law making the sale and use of contraceptives a criminal offense—that a modern privacy doctrine emerged.
