Yes, there is a word for "privacy" which is KhuSuuSiyya ÎÕæÕíÉ and  
the adjective would be KhuSuuSiyy ÎÕæÕí "private" as opposed to  
'umuumiyy Úãæãí "public". Of course, there are established  
expressions that cannot change such as "private sector" qiTaa' 'aam  
ÚÇã ÞØÇÚ as opposed to "public sector" ÎÇÕ ÞØÇÚ.

It seems that the term khususiyya has imposed itself in the last years.

The Dutch-Arabic dictionary by Hoogland gives "ixtilaa'" and "xalwa".

It does however seem to me not a much appreciated commodity in Arabic
societies...
