"Our mobile applications and websites may also collect precise information about the location of your device after you permit us to obtain such information from technologies such as Bluetooth beacons, GPS, Wi-Fi signals, or cell tower signals. We may also use technologies to determine if you are shopping in one of our stores by relying on signals transmitted by your mobile devices."

Publix collects precise location data using GPS, Bluetooth beacons, Wi-Fi, and cell towers, and tracks whether you are physically present in their stores.

"We may also use technologies that let us know whether you viewed certain content, whether you viewed our emails or other electronic communications, and whether the advertising we place on the Services and other websites or mobile applications is effective. Some of the third parties that provide content on our Services or support our business by facilitating online advertising, analytics, or research may use technologies to track your online activities over time and across various websites and other online services."

Publix and its third-party partners track user activity across multiple websites and services over time for advertising and analytics purposes.

"We may share information with business partners and advertisers for our marketing and advertising purposes, but we do not monetize your personal information by selling or renting it for monetary compensation to outside parties. We may share your personal information to our service providers, who use that information to perform technology, business or other professional functions on our behalf."

Publix shares personal information with business partners, advertisers, service providers, subsidiaries, and affiliates for marketing and advertising purposes.

"Internet or other electronic network activity, such as information about how you use, access, or interact with the Services or our emails, including but not limited to information about how you use your mouse, keyboard, and other input devices when accessing the Services; information about your activities on other online services; and information about your browser and device."

Publix collects detailed behavioral data including how you use your mouse, keyboard, and other input devices, which goes well beyond what a grocery store needs for core functionality.

"Please note that if you request that your information no longer be used to provide you services, Publix or its vendors may retain your information for Publix's business purposes, such as for backups, analysis, records of deletions, legal requirements, and data retention requirements or policies."

Even after you request account cancellation, Publix retains your data for broad business purposes including backups and analysis, with no clear deletion timeline.
