Copyright and privacy are two very different ideas, but both affect the dissemination of information.

Copyright law protects original creative works such as music, film, choreography, books, and more.

Privacy law protects individuals from unauthorized access to their information.

Say I take a photograph of my child at home. I have an expectation of privacy because I wasn't in a public area, and copyright in the photo is ascribed to me, because I created it. If you distribute this photo without my permission, you are violating my child's privacy and infringing my copyright.
