home depot is the same way, i bought something online on HD once and one day went in the store and bought something with the same credit card and the emailed me about my in store purchase.
i never logged it or provided any other information than my credit card swipe in the store but they tied it to the account i had on homedepot.com
Also, I know an engineer that was inside a monstrous grocery chain many years back. Back then the payment and loyalty systems were separated by technical measures and firing level policies. If you used a CC without a points card they were not able to associate it to any kind of account.
Obviously the CC processor could but they didn’t get a list of purchases.
