Physical privacy could be defined as preventing "intrusions into one's physical space or solitude"[2]This would include such concerns as:

  • preventing intimate acts or hiding one's body from others for the purpose of modesty; apart from being dressed this can be achieved by walls, fences, privacy screens,cathedral glass, partitions between urinals, by being far away from others, on a bed by a bed sheet or a blanket, when changing clothes by a towel, etc.; to what extent these measures also prevent acts being heardvaries
  • video, of aptly named graphic, or intimate, acts, behaviors or body parts
  • preventing unwelcome searching of one's personal possessions
  • preventing unauthorized access to one's home or vehicle
  • medical privacy, the right to make fundamental medical decisions without governmental coercion or third party review, most widely applied to questions of contraception
