Did you sign Google's visitor agreement? Did you read Google's visitor agreement. You give up some IP rights by signing that. This is a case where it matters. When I visited Google, I refused to sign. They just give you a badge that said you didn't sign.

On that terminal thing near the big cafeteria? they just clicked something that was obviously android and handed me one.

I guess they agreed on my behalf?

No, it just confirms who the person is. No agreement is presented on that device (I am a Googler who has guests now and then).
