I'm not reading that article, irrelevant to your situation.

To summarize the article, they can ask, but not record any info under
California law.

And they aren't routinely allowed to ask, under the merchant agreement.

I think that anything that happens after initial denial and the call
into the authorization center changes the concept of what is and is not
allowed by the merchant agreement.

Perhaps; if anyone has a copy of the merchant agreement, maybe they can
comment.
