As terrible of an experience as this is, I’d wager it’s less that “we’re slathering your data around” and more like “we use a crappy outsourced cloud platform to control the lights and don’t have the budget/desire/capability to make sure it’s compliant and won’t get us sued.” Granted, this is why I don’t buy IoT devices with crappy cloud control panels, since they can stop working whenever the company behind them decides they’re not worth maintaining.
