Is my content physically accessable by dropbox and how can i be assure that my data is safe and caanot be leaked or shared ?
Thanks for your post, @alee007.
Rest assured that Dropbox employees can’t access your files or see their contents.
As for your security concern, you can see more details here and here on how Dropbox keeps your files secure.
Let me know if I can be of more help, though.

You can find that information in the Privacy Policy and Terms.

That is technically not correct. Dropbox can access your files if they need to (for example for legal reasons) as per this help article.

If an account is disabled, the content is removed or it stays there?
If removed by Dropbox data would be removed if there was no legal reasons to keep it (for example law enforcement action).
