Who We Are
Outlaw Radio 959 FM is a broadcast radio station operated by Hill Broadcasting. Our website address is https://outlawcountry959.com. This policy applies to the Site and to information we collect through it, including our streaming player, contest and giveaway entries, song requests, contact forms, and email communications.
Information We Collect
Information you provide directly. We collect information you submit to us, such as your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, and any message content when you:
- Enter a contest, giveaway, or promotion
- Submit a song request, contact, or feedback form
- Sign up for newsletters or email updates
- Leave a comment (if commenting is enabled)

Information collected automatically. When you visit the Site, we and our service providers automatically collect technical information, including your IP address, browser type and user agent string, device and operating system information, referring and exit pages, pages viewed, links clicked, and the dates and times of your visits. This information is collected through cookies and log files described below.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use the following categories:
Functional and site cookies. If you leave a comment on the Site, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience so you do not have to re-enter your details on a future comment. These last up to one year. If you have an account and log in, we set cookies to maintain your session and remember your display choices. Login cookies typically last two days, screen-option cookies last about a year, and a “Remember Me” selection extends your login for roughly two weeks. Logging out removes these login cookies. A temporary cookie may also be set when you visit the login page to confirm your browser accepts cookies; it contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
Analytics cookies. If we use third-party analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to measure aggregate traffic and Site performance, those services may set cookies. We do not use session-recording or behavioral replay tools on the Site.
Controlling cookies. Most browsers let you refuse or delete cookies through their settings. Disabling cookies may affect how parts of the Site function.
Embedded Content From Other Websites
Pages and articles on this Site may include embedded content, such as audio streams, videos, images, social media posts, and links. Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you had visited that website directly. These third parties may collect data about you, set their own cookies, embed additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including if you are logged in to an account on that third-party service. We do not control the privacy practices of these third parties and encourage you to review their policies.
Comments and Gravatar
When visitors leave comments on the Site (where commenting is enabled), we collect the data shown in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check whether you use it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After a comment is approved, your profile picture may be visible to the public alongside your comment.
