Trying to find out if there is any backup of data when using the free (limit to 5 folk) bit bucket cloud. Boss wants to know if data is backed up, or if we need to do so. 

Any ideas? Any help? Thanks!

Yes, repos are backed up: https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/does-bitbucket-backup-my-repository-288658413.html

However, you should also remember something else about Git and Mercurial:

One of the great features of distributed version control systems (DVCS) such as Git and Mercurial is that they're distributed. Backups are still very important, but consider that every person on your team that has forked your repository has a complete copy with a full history.
