Hi lydias, welcome to Linux Lite and the community!
The release note about the Google based search homepage doesn't say or imply that your searches are monitored by Linux Lite. I assume that from any use of the search page, Google provides some revenue to Linux Lite. You can choose to change your browser's homepage if you would prefer. But for folks who want to help LL earn some money, and would be using Google for search anyway, its an easy way to support the distro.
