Right to privacy through skylight

I'm planning on building a velux terrace system in my top-floor loft flat. It would overlook the skylight in the flat roof in the below flat. I could have a higher rail and hanging baskets so there is no line-of-sight into the skylight but it is very close to my planned balcony. Does anyone know what right to privacy exists for skylights (as opposed to vertical windows)or are they treated the same?

As it installation would require Planning, it’d be them who would advise as to whether it would increase overlooking and reduce privacy to any neighbouring properties.
