Cell service companies track your location based on signal strength, and are known for selling this data to as many third parties as possible. There is no way to stop them from tracking your phone location, short of removing your SIM card.

Is airplane mode or turning your phone off effective? I've heard stated before that they are not, but I don't understand the technical details.
