Is it safe for a company to use google search?

When doing some market analysis or research into peers on some upcoming and secret deals, some employees just start by googling. I'm wondering if this is safe? I mean if you see the search queries it doesn't take a genius to figure out what deal they're probably are working on.

You haven't blabbed anything to anyone, so why would you worry if it's safe?
