Thats pretty much what I mean - if you dont care then thats your problem. However, im trying to explain why other people dont like these cards and why its unethical for shops to offer them.
Its not merely your name and email. They would know your address, age, family situation, and which common maladies you suffer from like high cholesterol, headaches, diabetes, and so on. But thats just the information they collect directly at colesworth. They can exchange thus data with everyone else, and match up your visa card. So anything you buy anywhere really becomes part of the extensive profile they have.
You might not care about all that, after all… what difference does it make to you what ads you get shown or what a shop might think you might want to buy.
However, I just feel like thats none of their business. I shouldn’t have to provide this wealth of information in addition to fair price for the goods I wish to purchase.
