Ability to encrypt ManicTime Screenshots on client prior upload to Server to maintain privacy
When synchronizing data with manic time Server, all data (timeline, screenshot) etc. is available on manic time Server transparently to admins. This might be useful in some Environments. However, to us this means that we cannot protect our employee’s privacy when they synchronize with a corporate ManicTime server. If we had the option to encrypt content (especially screenshots) on the Client with a secret key only known to the employee’s manic time Desktop Instance (employee decides on which device he or she uses the key), we could protect the employees privacy and also provide the ability to synchronize multiple Clients to a corporate Server.

These screenshots can have sensitive information. If someone with nefarious intentions were to somehow gain access to these screenshots it could have serious security implications.
Encryption of screen shots locally would really improve the situation, would let me sleep a little better at night!

I'm facing the same situation. LOVE the screenshot feature for myself to remind myself what I was actually doing at a particular time. But the idea of screenshots so plainly available to anyone with access to that folder means potential security breach.
If the screenshots could be saved in a small compressed format that could be saved in a secure database with limited retention I think that would be a big help.
