Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Privacy isn’t an issue of secrecy - it means allowing people to consent and control their personal information. Designers have a particular responsibility to design for privacy. They should avoid deceptive patterns, maintain transparency on who can access personal data, use language with care, provide tools for data protection, make sure privacy features are discoverable, remind users of privacy features, and never change privacy settings without letting users know.
