The right to observe and respect private life is considered one of the fundamental freedoms, which is one of the concepts of developed legal systems and is closely related to human dignity. Advances in social life have changed the dimensions of privacy. These new dimensions should also be supported, but it does not mean the absolute prohibition of privacy violations, the Iranian legislator takes steps to protect this privacy by determining the limits of the government's powers and taking into account individual rights and freedoms, the interest of society and public order. . Opinions issued by international courts and leading countries, especially Canada, regarding privacy, which are basically based on the rules and arguments of human rights, can be considered as a model of national legislation in the protection of privacy. The laws of the two countries are inferred to respect and prohibit entry into privacy, except in cases where social interests and public order require it, in which case it is possible by following special formalities
