The US Constitution doesn't explicitly mention the right to privacy, but it is implied by the language of the First, Third, Fourth, Ninth, and Fourteenth Amendments. For a more in-depth discussion of the right to privacy, see Related Questions, below.
Is it true that there is no specific guarantee of a right to privacy in the constitution?
True, but the 9th Amendment says that the rights listed in the constitution are not the only ones that the people have. The 9th amendment means that just because the authors of the constitution may have not mentioned a certain right in that document, this is not evidence that the right doesn't really exist. Strangely, the Supreme Court didn't use the 9th Amendment when it found a "privacy right" to abortion, or to marry someone of another race, or to buy birth control. I forget what part of the constitution they cited as being the source of this right to privacy.
What makes something a right when dealing with constitution and rights?
ANYTHING issued as a right or is IMPLIED as a right within the Bill of Rights. An IMPLIED right is privacy, NO WHERE in the Constitution is privacy listed as a right; however, the U.S. S.C. had implied privacy as a right such as the 4th amendment when pertaining to search and seizures and also as recognized by the U.S.S.C. in Roe v Wade in the abortion issue (privacy) and also in Griswold v. Connecticut (marital contraception issues) and many more. Just because you do NOT view the word RIGHT in the area of the constitution you are viewing, DOES NOT mean you have no right. The U.S. Supreme Court has made NUMEROUS rulings giving citizens rights that were never listed or implied in the Constitution.

The right to the privacy of American citizens can be found in the 4th amendment of the constitution. In short, this amendment affords citizens of the unlawful search and seizure.
How right to privacy is implied by other constitutional rights guaranteed in the Constitution?
Two amendments in the Bill of Rights imply a right to privacy. The Fourth Amendment protects citizens from "unreasonable search and seizure". But in recent years, the Tenth Amendment is often cited as the basis of a right to privacy. The Tenth Amendments states: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." Some scholars and Constitutional experts believe that if there is no constitutional provision allowing an invasion of privacy by the government, then the people can claim power over their own privacy or the "right to be let alone." This belief has formed the basis in arguments in favor of the right to abortion, same-sex marriage and medical marijuana laws, among others.
