I would only clean them if you are having a problem such as a corroded battery in a flash, or something along those lines. I think more photographers damage their equipment by overzealous cleaning than other common causes.
"If it ain't broke don't fix it" works for some folk, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" works for others.
I look at my contacts every time I change a lens or a battery. If I see any black or green where I should see only silver or gold, I clean it; if I don't, I don't.
