My address was given to an employee w/o authorization. Does it violate my PRIVACY RIGHTS?

I have been fired because of medical reasons, i was unable to perform my duties and it affected my attendance as well. I was out sick and my boss had another one of our employees come to my house and give my last check and tell me that as of that day, I am terminated. Doesnt that violate my privacy rights because my address was given to someone without my authorization?

No. Your employer didn't give your address out to the public. They gave it to an employee, who acted as an agent of the employer in carrying out official employer business. You do not get a say in who your employer chooses as its agents.
