dc.description.abstractThe right to privacy is recognised as one of the most important individual rights. It is considered to be central to the protection of one's human dignity. It also forms the basis of any democratic society. Furthermore, it is linked to other basic rights, including the rights to freedom of expression and of association.1 The right to privacy is contained and recognised in almost every constitutional bill of rights and major international and regional conventions.2 It is also guaranteed expressly in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights,3 the European Convention on Human Rights,4 the American Convention on Human Rights5 and a number of countries' constitutions.6 The Convention on the Right to the Child recognises the right to privacy of the child.7
