"This is the coolest recipe tool I've used yet. Thanks! I've just taken a 7 gallon recipe which always frustrates me to 5 (and 10) so I can more easily fit my carboys."
- Matthew

The templates are awesome and the calculators are top notch. Thanks for all the time and effort making this site. Will be here a long time."

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, G Holdings collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. G Holdings’ purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how G Holdings’ visitors use its website. From time to time, G Holdings may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

G Holdings also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on BrewersFriend.com blog posts. G Holdings only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to G Holdings’ websites choose to interact with G Holdings in ways that require G Holdings to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that G Holdings gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for an account at BrewersFriend.com to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with G Holdings – by purchasing access to the Brewer’s Friend calculator tools are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, G Holdings collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with G Holdings. G Holdings does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

G Holdings may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, G Holdings may monitor the most popular blogs on the BrewersFriend.com site or use spam screened by the Akismet service to help identify spam. G Holdings may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, G Holdings does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

G Holdings discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on G Holdings’ behalf or to provide services available at G Holdings’ websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using G Holdings’ websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. G Holdings will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, G Holdings discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when G Holdings believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of G Holdings, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an G Holdings website and have supplied your email address, G Holdings may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with G Holdings and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. G Holdings takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
