Privacy is about being in control of what information about you is made available and to whom. Identification is relevant by implication, not by definition. You might insist that people knock before entering your room to respect your privacy. No identification is relevant here; your housemates know who and where you are already. Someone might ask you what you did this weekend, and you might not want to reveal that you spent the weekend on a hobby you're embarrassed or sensitive about. Maybe you spent the weekend writing your novel, but you aren't ready for people to know about it yet. If you tell a white lie that you spent the weekend camping, you're doing so to preserve your privacy. Again, no identification is relevant here. If something can be linked back to you, then you lose control of the information and your privacy is compromised. But that's an implication of the definition, not the definition itself.
