Many years ago Google had a mass email problem with Gmail that ended up with people losing part or all their email. Google referred users to their terms of service that spoke to the fact that they weren't responsible for the loss. Yes, you can lose all your photos and there's very little that you can do about it and finding someone liable is not likely. I trust Google is better at keeping people's email safe now but ultimately it's up to me to make sure I secure the data that I treasure. Secure backups require at least 2 independent places of storage. You might was to setup a local storage place that you can access if your photos go missing.
