I still cannot boot up my iPad? What do I do?

Press the home and power buttons. If all else fails, the iPad is damaged. Take it to an Apple store to find out more.

If I back up my apps and data to someone else's iTunes, can he restore my data to his iPhone and access it?

If the iOS backup is not encrypted, anyone can restore it to another iOS device and access data on that device, except iCloud data (if they don't have the Apple ID and password).
