Terms & Disclaimers

General Disclaimer

The music, historical documentation, commentary, and other content broadcast on this online radio station (the "Station") are for entertainment, cultural promotion, and educational purposes only. The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed by presenters, hosts, guests, or community members during live broadcasts or in interactive spaces belong solely to the individuals expressing them and do not necessarily reflect the official policy, position, or views of the Station or its management.

Copyright, Ownership & Artist Rights

The Station operates as a digital sanctuary and a living passion project dedicated to the discovery, documentation, and preservation of the golden era of African music, specifically focusing on the 1960s through the 1990s.

• Ownership: The Station does not claim ownership over the music, audio files, lyrics, cover art, or promotional photos featured in our broadcasts or digital archive. All intellectual property rights belong entirely to the original artists, their estates, independent creators, or rightful record companies.

• Takedown & Removal Requests: We deeply respect the work and artistry of creators. If you are a copyright holder, artist, or legal representative and wish to have your content, likeness, or artwork completely removed or modified, please email us directly at marketing@jabulaniradio.com with the subject line "Content Removal Request". The specified material will be taken down permanently and immediately upon request, no questions asked.

Geolocation & Regional Streaming Limitations

As an online platform serving a global community, our digital stream and archive are accessible across various territories. We understand that artists, record companies, and copyright owners may have specific territorial restrictions, regional distribution rights, or geolocation constraints tied to their catalogs.

If you are an artist, record label, or copyright owner and require your music to be restricted, geo-blocked, or limited to specific geographical regions on our platform, please advise us of these requirements. You can submit your territorial distribution preferences by emailing marketing@jabulaniradio.com with the subject line "Geolocation / Regional Restriction Request". We will gladly work with you to implement the necessary regional limitations to respect your distribution agreements.

Historical Accuracy: Corrections, Additions & Omissions

Because a massive number of pioneering musicians lived and recorded before the internet era, tracking down accurate historical data can be challenging. We view this as a community project for cultural preservation, and accuracy is everything to us.

If you notice a biographical detail that needs fixing, an omission that leaves out key figures, a lyric translation error, or a band lineup that requires adjustment, we want to hear from you. We also warmly invite artists, managers, and fans to submit new historical details or biographies to ensure these legends are seen online and documented accurately.

Please send all updates, historical additions, or corrections to marketing@jabulaniradio.com with the subject line "Archive Correction/Addition". We want to ensure every artist is presented with absolute accuracy and the utmost respect.

Licensing & Evolving Technology

Navigating the complex world of global music broadcasting and licensing is a continuous process of discovery and improvement. We understand that we are operating ahead of the curve in a complex digital environment. We are actively and willingly working to meet all regulatory and performance rights requirements to ensure we remain in good standing while respecting and appreciating the artists we feature. As traditional radio shrinks, we remain committed to thinking outside the box, exploring creative outreach strategies, and leveraging changing technology to keep these timeless rhythms alive.

Content Submissions & Quality Control

By submitting music, rare recordings, photos, or biographical text to the Station, you acknowledge that:

1. All submissions must pass through our internal quality control and verification checks before being added to the live archive.

2. For the time being, our archive strictly accepts and focuses on music from the 1960s to the 1990s.

3. If physical audio cannot be found for a submitted artist, the Station reserves the right to create and host a written biography solely to honor, appreciate, and document their legacy online.

Data Privacy & Personal Data Protection

We are deeply committed to protecting the privacy, security, and personal data of our global community, including our listeners, independent artists, managers, and partners.

• Collection of Personal Data: We only collect personal data—such as your name, email address, phone number, or musical metadata—that you voluntarily provide to us when you submit art, request archive corrections, subscribe to updates, or reach out for partnerships.

• Use of Data: Your personal information is used strictly to manage your submissions, communicate regarding archive accuracy, improve our streaming experience, help navigate artists through digital platforms, or handle partnership inquiries. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.

• Third-Party Services: Our streaming platform, website, or social media channels may utilize trusted third-party tools (such as media players, analytics, or security plugins). These external services have their own independent privacy policies, and the Station is not responsible for their data collection practices.

• Your Privacy Rights (Access & Deletion): You retain full control over your personal data. At any time, you have the right to request to view, modify, or permanently delete your contact information, personal details, or submission history from our internal systems.
