You have to present ID to buy tobacco or alcohol in the states. These places do not store any information on your ID. They glance at it to verify your birthdate, then you put the ID back in your wallet.

I've noticed some stores are scanning ID cards now. I have no idea what happens with the data they get from the scan.
