The perfect backup! :-)

To be fair, Google has recently (some months ago?) informed its users
- well, it at least informed me - to set up a 'Plan what happens to your
data if you can't use your Google Account anymore'. It's actually a
quite elaborate facility which accounts for all kinds of contingencies.

Have a look at the 'Inactive Account Manager' in your account.

https://myaccount.google.com/inactive

(You get there from the main page - 'Data & Personalisation' -
'Download, delete or make a plan for your data' - 'Make a plan for your
account')
