Why is privacy so important?

Privacy gives you the power to choose what and with whom you’ll share. It’s essential for freedom, security, consent, and dignity.

Privacy isn’t about shutting out everyone and everything. It provides safety, control and the right to grant access. Privacy gives you the ability to express yourself, to be creative, to spend your time and your money in whatever manner you like, without the scrutiny of others. It protects our intimate moments, our most embarrassing ambitions, our radical ideas, and the ability to be our true selves.
