As well as the huge benefits of reduced heat penetration and UV & IR ray blocking, there is the added advantage of using window film for privacy. Privacy is a human right. It is essential to autonomy and the protection of human dignity, serving as the foundation upon which many other human rights are built.
On a bright day, you might want to protect your privacy, by reduce the glare coming through the windows. Usually this would mean closing the blinds or drawing the curtains, but not anymore. The tinting window film reacts with the sunlight every time the bright sun hits it, causing a tint that controls the glare and maintains a private interior.

On a bright and hot day, you lose your view entirely whilst trying to control the glare and room temperature. When coupled with a set of blinds or curtains, you improve your ability to let natural light in whilst preventing unwanted attention.
