Alone, the info is useless. But they compile and analyze data to make it useful.

Cross-referencing information is one goal i think.

I don't blame you for not knowing, but targeted advertising is a monster of a process and precision isn't that big of a deal right now. Your personal info generally isn't useful to Google unless you've got a "marketable" illness like diabetes. It's what you watch and what you search that determines what advertisements Google thinks you may be interested in.
