The sadness of my life is that I'm probably bound to be repeating this until I let out my final breath: If you're not running the service yourself and taking care of end-to-end encryption, somebody can (and probably will) read your messages. Actual privacy of messaging does not exists today. Don't even bother looking for that. EDIT: just to clarify, it might just be that somebody can access your data for a legitimate purpose (say an operator of the service) and then leak/sell the data. This is the simplest thing that can happen and that DID happen. The united arab emirates paid a Twitter employee from UAE to leak data about anti-UAE-government from Twitter. People died because of this.
