No, nothing is tied back to your Google account, nothing is correlated
in that way and logs with IP addresses are deleted quickly.

There is a privacy policy.  It's clear.  It explains what is done and
why, what is kept and for how long.  Per the policy, the only data that
is kept is data with clear operational benefit, source information
stripped down to ASN and geolocation.

There is also a FAQ, which covers what Randy has already noted.
NXDOMAIN is not interfered with.

Intro:

FAQ:

Privacy:

There are more docs linked from those.  The FAQ has some short and
sweet "No" answers to some privacy questions too.

NB: writing in a personal capacity, not involved in the Google DNS
    project except in having provided some beta feedback; opinions my
    own, yada yada.
