Hi


The ability to reuse a stotram on another website or app depends on copyright status and source.


1. Check Copyright Status

• Check the website/app’s terms of use or copyright notice.

• Avoid copying translations or formatting without permission if they are marked as copyrighted.


2. Attribute the Source


Even if the stotram is in the public domain:

• It’s good practice to credit the source you took it from, especially if it involved curation, transliteration, or translation.


3. Using Audio or Media

If you’re reusing audio recordings, chants, or images:

• You need explicit permission or must use content that is licensed under Creative Commons or similar.

4. Commercial Use

If you’re using the stotram in a paid app or monetized website, it’s especially important to:

• Ensure the content is truly public domain, or

• License it appropriately from the original creator or rights holder.
