Secrets are a private issue. The mode of organising our private daily lives, the way we live, what we eat , where and with whom we pass our free time, with whom we marry and how we educate our children are also private issues. The right of a private life protects the private sector against illegal interventions of the state such as arbitrary control of persons registered as illegal immigrants as well as the abusive misuse of personal data. The right to married life and family life protects free choice both partners and the creation of our family.
