The developer of the software behind this lists a sample of the data they can collect.
While I can one of the first to be concerned about private data becoming available for marketing purposes, I don't mind as much if the data is not linked to me personally. That is what seems to be the case here: the mall can track my whereabouts as long as they do not know it's me (by linking my credit card purchases to my phone for instance).
