We do not save any images. The phone alerts us when someone is at the door, but you have to look at the image quickly. It goes away. So I don't see how they can share footage in our case. Now if you pay Ring's extra fee you do save footage. But husband is IT guy and said NO right away to saving images. We live in a pretty safe area and really only needed the Ring doorbell while I was working from home and he was at an office. No issue now as I retired and he now works from home.
