Acceptable Use & Intellectual Property
Last updated: 2 September 2026
Dowser is a product of Stream Alert LLC (“we,” “us,” the “Company”). Dowser, meaning the browser extension, the local software that ships with it, its license and activation system, and this website, is owned by Stream Alert LLC and protected by copyright, trade-secret, and other intellectual-property laws. Your license gives you the right to use Dowser. It does not transfer any ownership to you.
What you may not do
You agree not to, and not to help, encourage, or permit anyone else to:
- Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or deobfuscate any part of Dowser, or otherwise try to derive its source code, algorithms, or internal design, except to the limited extent this restriction is expressly prohibited by applicable law.
- Tamper with, patch, or circumvent the license, trial, activation, pairing, or any technical protection measure. That includes modifying the extension to bypass the license check, resetting or extending the trial, rewinding your clock to do so, or defeating the code protections.
- Forge, generate, share, resell, or distribute license keys, or use a key you did not lawfully purchase.
- Copy, modify, distribute, sublicense, or create derivative works of Dowser, or publish a modified, repackaged, or cracked build.
- Probe, scan, or attack the software, its security mechanisms, or our systems, or use Dowser to do anything unlawful.
Consequences
These restrictions are a material condition of your license. If you break them, your license terminates immediately and automatically, and the license key involved may be revoked.
Dowser's code, algorithms, and license system are the intellectual property, and in part the trade secrets, of Stream Alert LLC. Reverse engineering, cracking, tampering, or key piracy causes us real and irreparable harm. We will enforce our rights to the fullest extent of the law, including seeking injunctive relief, actual and statutory damages, and recovery of our attorneys' fees and costs. Nothing on this page limits any other remedy available to us.
Responsible disclosure
Found a security issue? We would much rather hear from you than find out the hard way. Email akhilgorantala1@gmail.com with the details and give us a reasonable window to fix it before disclosing. Good-faith security research reported this way is welcome, and the “what you may not do” section above is not aimed at you.
Who we are
Dowser is operated by Stream Alert LLC. Questions about this policy, licensing, or permission to do something it prohibits: akhilgorantala1@gmail.com. We will consider reasonable requests.
