La nostra politica ti permette di fare modifiche prima di 24 ore.
*Prima* follows the time expression; *prima di* would change the meaning to “before 24 hours”.
La nostra politica ti permette a fare modifiche...
*Permettere* takes *di* before an infinitive, not *a*.

Cultural Tip
In Italian business communication, it’s common to use a polite, formal tone when describing policies. Adding *per favore* or *grazie* at the end of the sentence can soften the statement: *La nostra politica ti permette di fare modifiche fino a 24 ore prima, per favore.* Also, note that “24 ore” is often expressed as “un giorno” in everyday speech, especially in informal contexts.
