Commonly understood, they are the inalienable rights that a person is inherently entitled to simply because they are human and that it is "inherent in every individual", regardless of age, nationality, location, language, religion, or another status. Since they are universal, they are applicable anywhere and anytime and are egalitarian since they are the same for everyone.  In general, human rights are meant to require empathy and the rule of law and impose an obligation on individuals to respect others' human rights, and they should not be taken away unless specific circumstances require it.
