The problem was unsecured connections when accessing your footage through their web portal.

They've since fixed the issue, but they inform people that screenshots are held in the cloud for a limited time in order to serve certain types of push notifications.

I may also be trying to cope with the fact that I bought an expensive system before learning about their issues.
