"small thumbnails of the images are uploaded to our server"

This is the part which blocks it for me[1] - although I will give them credit for being upfront and honest about it when you launch the app the first time.

[1] if they release a phone-local version, however limited, I'll definitely give that a proper go to see how good their tech is.
