Comment Policy

Welcome to Our Shakti. I’m so glad you stopped by and hope you become a regular visitor and commenter. I welcome your constructive feedback.

If you decide to write a comment, I ask that you follow the basic rules and guidelines presented below.

If you wouldn’t say it in person, please don’t say it here.

Our Shakti reserves the right to restrict comments that do not contribute constructively to the conversation at hand, contain profanity or crude language, personal attacks, false information, copyrighted information or seek to promote a personal or unrelated business. (To clarify on the last point, please don’t add a self-promoting shout-out to your URL in the comment field.) Hate speech is not tolerated and hateful comments will be removed by the administrator.

Any post found to be in violation of any of these guidelines will be modified to remove the offending text or deleted without warning.

By submitting your content, you grant Our Shakti permission to reproduce your content to our discretion. For example, I occasionally include your comments for the writing of new blogs. If you don’t want your comment to be used for such purposes, explicitly state so within the body of your comment and I will respect your wishes.

If you find evidence of copyright infringement in the comments of ourshakti.com, contact me at at info@ourshakti.com and I will remove the offending material as soon as possible.

Questions or concerns? Please contact me via email at at info@ourshakti.com.
