An email is all they need. From that they can get together with the provider, in most cases, and find out all they need to know. Don't you know that selling individual profiles is a big business?

They do use cookies, which nearly every website on the net does, but of course you can disable them in your browser, or in your case, use a VPN to negate their effects.
