"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized"

But there is all kinds of privacy related this that aren't explicitly included in those words where have been interpreted as in there, like do you have the right to watch porn in your bedroom, or can the government ban porn? Do you have the right to buy condoms, or can he government ban that?
