16. Children’s privacy
The services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13.

If we learn that personal information was collected from a child under 13 without legally required authorization, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
A parent or guardian who believes a child provided information may contact info@power1047.com with the subject line Child Privacy Request.
Because Power1047 may broadcast explicit or uncensored music and mature discussions, parents and guardians should supervise minors’ access.
17. Third-party websites and platforms
Power1047 may link to or display material from third-party services, including music platforms, video services, radio directories, social networks, artist websites, advertisers, and news sources.
Those services may collect information directly from your browser or device. Their privacy practices are controlled by their own policies, not this Policy.
Review the privacy settings and policies of third-party services before interacting with them.
18. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the services, legal requirements, technology, or business practices.
