Saavn Media Limited

JioSaavn is a major Indian music streaming service that provides access to a vast library of over 80 million songs in multiple languages, as well as podcasts and curated playlists. The platform, operated by Saavn Media Limited, functions on a freemium model, offering basic features with ads for free and premium options like ad-free listening and offline downloads through paid subscriptions. To personalize user experience and target advertising, JioSaavn collects a significant amount of personal data, including location, contact information, search history, and usage data, which may be linked to a user's identity. This information is also shared with various third-party partners, advertisers, and analytics companies, creating a detailed profile of a user's listening habits and preferences. The extensive collection and sharing of personal data pose privacy risks, as this information could be used for more than just music recommendations, potentially leading to unwanted targeted marketing and profiling by various entities. Individuals can protect their information by being mindful of the data they share, managing their privacy settings within the app, and can request the deletion of their account and associated data through the platform's settings.
