If your computer has a setting to have your Google Drive files stored on your local storage drive, you may have another area of exposure with your Word file. A hacker into your computer or evil local tech support person could get to your Word file on your local drive. But you still might have good protection if your local Word document is password protection for document encryption rather than only for limited access. Encrypted files are generally the gold standard. And better yet under these conditions is if your entire local storage drive is encrypted by your operating system.
