They have the ability to view your spending in real time. Anything purchased with a check or credit card. Many companies collect your phone number as well, which allows them to track your purchases even if you pay cash.

That is one reason I do almost all of my spending with cash...and I have never been asked for my phone number. I have been asked for a zip code a few times...I know several from the surrounding area.
