First, different countries may have different policies and laws governing records.
Second. there is a difference between "sealed" and "private". "Sealed" is typically a term used in legal settings to mean a record cannot be "opened" (viewed, seen, copied) without a Judge reviewing the record and a court order. As examples of "sealed records" in the USA:
- adoption records before 1980s
- a minor's arrest and court records
Third, privacy is a term used broadly to cover a variety of records, and typically, it means NO one other than the person whose name is on the record, or the parent or legal guardian, can request to see or copy the record. Some examples of records protected under "privacy" in the USA include:
- school records
- college records
- employment records
- medical records
- hospital records
- psychiatric records
- dental records
Fourth, many records are "public", including:
- birth
- marriage
- divorce
- property
- tax
- voter registration, voting record
- arrest
- death
- Will
- Probate, in absence of a Will (intestate)
- and anything published anywhere, including newspapers

What does records purged and sealed mean?
It means that whatever records are being referred to had had information removed AND they were sealed. Reply by Darren Chaker: To purge is to remove. Consider 'purging' information as deleting it from a database. To seal is to keep from public access, but is available to unseal if the one of very few reasons exist, do in fact exist. Otherwise, the sealed records are sealed forever. In California, the law provides broad power to determine what should be sealed if in the absence of specific law. For example, juvenile records must be sealed and destroyed upon the court granting the petition, adoption records must sealed by statute as well. Darren Chaker

When did Obama pay to have his records sealed and how much did he pay?
He paid nothing, since it never happened. This is an internet myth, spread by Donald Trump and some other people who are opposed to the president. Mr. Obama's records are not "sealed"-- which can only be done by a court; Mr. Obama was not involved in a criminal case and thus, his records were not sealed by a judge. In fact, his school records and his medical records are private because they are protected by the same federal law that has protected other presidents: no-one is under any obligation to release such personal records unless they choose to do so. Most presidents have not released those records, and not doing so doesn't mean the person has anything to hide. And it should be noted that President Obama has released a number of other records, including the past six years of his tax returns.
