Explanation

Data privacy is concerned with ensuring personal information is collected, used, and shared appropriately and only with proper consent - protecting individuals from inappropriate disclosure. Data security focuses on the technical and operational controls that prevent unauthorized parties from accessing systems and data. Security is an enabler of privacy, but the two are distinct: you can have strong security and still violate privacy (e.g., by sharing data without consent), or have privacy policies without adequate security controls to enforce them.
