First and foremost, talk honestly with your husband, and actually expect him to be surprised if you haven’t talked with him about it yet. He grew up with them and probably isn’t feeling the constraints you are, but he needs to know how you feel. From there, he may know how to best approach the subject with your in-laws. Understand though that your in-laws are helping you through a transition so there needs to be some give and take. Whether you realize it or not, their lives are being impacted with you being there also. Yes, you have less privacy. If you can’t handle that, then you need to pay for a place to have that privacy.

What kinds of privacy issues are you having? I think it's a totally different thing for people to not be respecting your bedroom as your private space while you're there than if you're just feeling like you don't get as much alone time as you want. If it's a problem like the former, that needs to be addressed with the in laws; if it's a problem like that latter, you need to figure out how to handle this so you get some space, likely outside the house.
When I visit my in-laws, I just go to my room for privacy. If they are in your business, that’s another story. I’d also talk to your husband. I have a feeling he probably tells them right away if something bothers him since he grew up with them.
