I have one deck that no one touches but me and another one that I use for readings for others, I also use it for psychometry - reading the energy on the cards. Ive never cleansed a deck as such.
A lot of people say a lot of things.A lot of people say you should cleanse your deck if someone touches or holds your cards (sorry for making a mistake in title, my mom actually held and shuffled my deck).

Some people say that using the cards will bring the devil into your home. Not that I've seen.
Some say that if you don't receive your first deck as a gift, tarot will never work for you. In that case every reading I have ever done is void, as I BOUGHT my first deck my own self !
There is a whole thread here full of weird things people say.
There are many here who have the querent shuffle, and who read all day in coffee shops and so on. It simply would not be possible to cleanse a deck every time it has been touched/shuffled even if you wanted to.
If YOU feel uncomfortable with your cards - go ahead and cleanse them. It can't hurt and may make you more comfortable using them. Many here do like to do that from time to time, whatever their reasons. I have better things to do with my time than to do that whenever anyone else shuffles mine, believe me !
