I've been using Google Sheets as a data store for some of my latest projects, and it's really (mostly) delightful.

https://www.wheremoneygo.com barely has a database, and bedsides protecting the Google access keys has minimal privacy/security risk.

The main risk, and something I've only seen once, is a corrupted database on the Google Sheets side. Since I don't want to keep backups of peoples sheets, if something goes wrong on the Google-side the entire database could be lost.
