Americans’ privacy?

While reading the passport application and explanation documents at travel.state.gov, I came across the following question:

Won’t this chip violate Americans’ privacy?
There will be no personal information written on the electronic chip itself. The chip will have only a unique number pointing to a stored record contained in secure government databases.

So the chip itself does not violate Americans’ privacy, but the secure government database does?
