Differences between privacy and confidentiality

Privacy refers to the right of an individual to control access to their personal information, while confidentiality refers to the obligation of a person or organization to protect sensitive information shared with them by another party.

Privacy is a broader concept that encompasses the idea of personal autonomy and control over one's personal information, while confidentiality is more specific and relates to the duty to keep certain information private and secure.

Privacy is a fundamental human right that is protected by laws and regulations, while confidentiality is a legal and ethical obligation that applies to specific relationships, such as those between healthcare providers and patients, or between lawyers and clients.

In summary, privacy is about the individual's right to control their personal information, while confidentiality is about the obligation to protect sensitive information shared with others.

Privacy

- Definition: The right to control the flow of personal information about oneself.
- Focus: Protection of individuals' personal space, autonomy, and control over their own information.
- Regulatory Scope: Includes laws, regulations, and ethical guidelines that protect individuals' privacy rights.

Confidentiality

- Definition: The obligation to maintain the secrecy of information entrusted to one's care.

Key Differences

- Scope: Privacy rights apply to all individuals, while confidentiality obligations apply only to specific relationships or professions where sensitive information is disclosed.
- Purpose: Privacy aims to protect individuals' personal autonomy, while confidentiality aims to maintain the secrecy of specific information that has been entrusted.
- Enforcement: Privacy rights are typically enforced through legal or regulatory mechanisms, while confidentiality obligations may also be enforced through ethical guidelines or professional codes of conduct.
- Obligation: Privacy is a right held by individuals, while confidentiality is an obligation imposed on specific parties.
- Consent: In some cases, consent is required for the disclosure of personal information (privacy), but it is not always required for the disclosure of confidential information.
