I would start with the assumption that Google is collecting and storing every single possible data point about every single thing you share with them, including this. I have zero doubt that they store this info privately for their own use.

Zero doubt? Wow, wish I had such confidence to make claims about things I know little about.

Each photo's geolocation data is stored. Of course.

It is shown in the UI, as well as indexed so you can search by location.

For example, I can search for "photos of dogs in Portland" and it'll show all the pics of dogs I've taken in Portland.
