Original Note:
Google always stores all searches, even in the Incognito mode. But it never associated those searches to the user's profile. The allegation in the lawsuit was that in theory, Google had the ability to deanonymize Incognito users based on the IP addresses in the logs. https://www.wired.com/story/google-chrome-incognito-mode-data-deletion-settlement/
