Why is Deezer adjusting the volume while I drive?

I recently noticed that Deezer adjusts the volume when I am driving when it previously didn’t do that. Firstly, I always select all the privacy focused options when possible, location is turned off, and I’m not using any in car connected audio device. I’m just playing music from my phone. I do realize my iphone is a disrespecting privacy intrusive device which does not respect my non consenting requests. This volume feature only comes from my Deezer app, no other audio apps change the volume as I drive.

 

How does Deezer know I’m moving if location is off? Why does the volume drop when I stop & bump up when I begin moving? Clearly my device is tracking the speed of motion in which I am moving.

 

The volume normalizing feature doesn’t respond whether its off or on. I find this feature not only intrusive but frankly disrespectful to my choices.

I'm not sure if this happened to me too, but from now on I will try to pay attention to it myself.

@PMTours Does this happens connected to Android Auto or Carplay?
Thanks
