IV. Respect for the Truth

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

2489
Charity and respect for the truth should dictate the response to every request
for information or communication. the good and safety of others, respect for
privacy, and the common good are sufficient reasons for being silent about what
ought not be known or for making use of a discreet language. the duty to avoid
scandal often commands strict discretion. No one is bound to reveal the truth
to someone who does not have the right to know it.²⁸²
