Why should two entities not be able to have a confidential interaction if that is what they both want? Certainly a court order could supersede such a right just as it could most others provided sufficient evidence. However I would expect such things to be both highly justified and narrowly targeted.
This specific case isn't so much about a right to privacy as it is a more general freedom to enter into contracts with others and expect those to be honored.
