Is it safe to keep Backup plugged in all the time?

Yes. Backup is designed to stay plugged in continuously. It passes grid power through to your devices while keeping the battery topped off so it's always ready. Occasional brief top-off charging is normal and will not meaningfully reduce cycle life.
