Question about Game Saves

Hi everyone. We play Planet Coaster. We put a lot of work and hours into our maps and game saves.

Question, are your Planet Coaster game saves, saved only to your computer? Or are the saved to a Steam Cloud of Frontier Cloud thingy where it's saved online?

I think it's a great idea to back up saves. You don't want a software glitch, or HDD or SSD glitch, where your game save becomes lost or corrupt.

Frontier, are our game saves saved by default to our hard drives, or to some online server if Steam has it, or something. Is there a way to do both or to save online to your Steam account or something.

I decided to ask this question as it is a smart question. We may worry and enjoy all these things from this game. But what happens to the joy and hours, days, weeks; of work we put into our parks, if the save file goes awol. I think having some sort of Cloud save service (Xbox 360/One has this) is beneficial just incase your playing the game on two computers. HDD tech is old and not always reliable.

My custom desktop uses a Samsung EVO 850 1TB SSD which I had installed as my primary storage on my PC last month, and has a Samsung 5 year warranty. It also has the Windows 10 Home 64-bit OS on it and all my content. I also have a HyperX SSD 240GB as secondary storage which currently holds nothing.
 
It's totally dependent on how you have your Steam set up. You can set up your Steam/Planet Coaster saves to save either on hard drive or cloud.
 
My question sort of belongs here.... I use mobile internet and i notice when i save my game, my mb's are magically disappearing. Im only allowed 5 gb's per day :(
I think my saved games are also kept in the steam cloud but i dont think i want that?! My question is 1. can i turn it off and 2. is this bad for my game?!
