For Google a customer is a data point in their machine learning set (hopefully weighted by revenue). The decisions are made by a ML model. If you treat your relationship with Google as such from the beginning, you can extract some value if you use Google for near zero value use cases - spam/marketing emails, disposable non-real time computations, Adwords/AdSense on spammy sites.

Not sure if having an Android phone is safe enough for critical use, because it's entirely tied to a Google account.

GrapheneOS.org, use sandboxed webapps &/or profiles.
Does it have push notifications (Google Firebase)?
This, either be big enough for a dedicated account representative (do they even offer that?) or use for noncritical workloads.
Does this not cover everything people need right here?
