What about a grocery shop.

You can login and buy things. But how do you choose whether the shop can kleep track of what you have bought to suggest rebuying or for you to keep a shoopping list. Requestion those is more than login.

The shopping list to display the shopping list is fine, Using the shopping list for analytics is not.

> track of what you have bought to suggest rebuying

You know what you sold, no need to track user behaviour.
