Which is NOT one of the three types of claims for invasion of the Right of Privacy?

Intrusion upon seclusion

Public disclosure of private facts

Depiction in false light

Right of Publicity

The key idea is that the classic invasion of privacy claims consist of three main torts: intrusion upon seclusion, public disclosure of private facts, and depiction in false light. Right of Publicity, while closely related to privacy and often discussed alongside it, is about the commercial use of a person’s name, image, or likeness for profit. It protects against misappropriating someone’s identity for economic gain, not against invading privacy per se. So it isn’t one of the traditional privacy invasion claims, making it the correct choice for what is NOT included among the three. The other three fit squarely: intrusion upon seclusion covers intrusive acts into private space, public disclosure of private facts covers publishing private information, and false light covers presenting someone in a misleading or embarrassing way.
