  You underestimate the amount of intelligence Google's search data + smart machine learning can deduce about you. Remember how in the sherlock holmes stories, sherlock can deduce huge amount about people , from tiny clues ? How much do you think sherlock could deduce from Google searches - where people usually bare their souls ,on ALL their issues, from the insignificant to the critical? Machine learning can, to some extent , be that sherlock, but if someone with the right investigantional skills diggs through your search data - he can be sherlock too. And since Google does know all that about you, in most cases ,i think that keeping the rest of the data won't be the thing that "saves" you - maybe with the exception of your browsing patterns - but since Google has trackers in most web sites - they already know a large part of your browsing patterns - so you're quite defenseless there. TL;DR - Google search knows a huge amount about you, And with that data, sherlock holmes(or a decent investigator, or probably an AI) can know almost everything on you!
