Legal Information
These terms explain how you may use this website, how temple lists are presented, and how we handle information. Last updated August 2026.
Disclaimer
This website is a working directory of Shakti Peethas — sacred Hindu pilgrimage sites dedicated to Goddess Shakti. Different scriptures and regional traditions preserve different lists, identifications of body parts or ornaments, locations, Devi and Bhairava names, and totals. No single catalogue is universally accepted.
Entries, counts, and classifications on this site follow the records in our database. They may not match a traditional name of a list, a printed source, or local belief. Material here is for general information. It is not religious instruction, travel advice, or professional advice of any kind.
Terms of use
By using shaktapithas.com you agree to these terms. The site is provided as an informational catalogue. We may add, correct, move, or remove entries, images, and pages at any time, without notice.
You may browse and share links to pages for personal, educational, or research use. You may not scrape the site in a way that overloads it, present our catalogue as an official or complete list of Shakti Peethas, or use the site for unlawful purposes.
Intellectual property
The arrangement of this catalogue, our written descriptions, and the design of the website belong to Shakti Peethas, except where another owner is identified. Temple names, traditional lists, and religious narratives are part of a shared cultural record; we do not claim exclusive rights over that heritage.
Photographs and media may come from temples, Wikimedia, or other third-party sources. We do not claim copyright in those works. If you own an image used here and want it credited or removed, write to us.
External links
Pages may link to other websites, maps, or media hosts. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, availability, or privacy practices. A link is not an endorsement.
Privacy
This site has no user accounts and no contact form. If you email info@shaktapithas.com, we use that message only to reply. We do not sell personal information.
Hosting, content delivery, and similar infrastructure may process technical data such as IP address, browser type, and pages requested, in order to serve and protect the site. Temple listings are public reference data, not records about visitors.
Limitation of liability
The site is provided as is. We do not warrant that listings, locations, images, or identifications are complete, current, or free of error. You rely on the catalogue at your own risk.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Shakti Peethas is not liable for any loss or damage arising from use of the site, including travel plans, ritual practice, or disputes over which sites belong on a traditional list.
