Privacy policy
Last updated 31 October 2026
This is a personal site for one book. It has no accounts, no newsletter and no cookies. The only things you can give it are a comment and your name, and your email if you want to hear about a reply.
Comments
When you leave a comment, the site keeps your name and what you wrote. Your name and comment appear under the post once Guruseva has read and approved them.
If you tick the box to hear about a reply, the site also keeps your email. It is never shown on the page. It is used once, to tell you Guruseva replied, and then deleted. If no reply comes, it is deleted 90 days after your comment.
Your IP address and the details of your browser are not kept with your comment. Before a comment is sent, Cloudflare Turnstile checks that you are a person and not a spam program. Cloudflare’s own privacy policy applies to that check.
Comments are stored by PmeWeb, the agency that built the site, on Cloudflare, on our behalf. The reply email is sent from PmeWeb’s address through Cloudflare’s email service.
A published comment stays for as long as it is on the page. A comment that is refused or marked as spam is deleted 30 days after that decision.
Visitor counts
The site counts visits with a cookie-free measurement service run by PmeWeb, the agency that built it. It does not identify you and does not follow you to other sites: only totals are kept (pages read, visits). Your IP address is used for a moment to block abuse and is never stored.
Audio and video
The kirtan and the videos inside posts play from this site directly.
Hosting
The site is hosted by Cloudflare, which handles every request and keeps short technical logs to keep the site running and safe. Cloudflare and PmeWeb process this information only on our instructions and may be located outside your country.
Embedded video and audio players
Some articles embed YouTube (Google) videos. Nothing loads from YouTube until you press play: the preview image is served by this site. Once you start a video, it plays from youtube-nocookie.com, and YouTube may then collect data and set cookies under its own policy. Google’s privacy policy
Some articles embed SoundCloud recordings. Nothing loads from SoundCloud until you press play. Once you start a recording, it plays from w.soundcloud.com, and SoundCloud may then collect data and set cookies under its own policy. SoundCloud’s privacy policy
