Data points
***Data points*** don’t have to end with SKUs, either. The qualities embedded in each product, along with contextual information surrounding the sale can be even more useful in providing recommendations in the future. Knowing your customer’s history means not just knowing what they buy, view and consume, but also why they made those decisions.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Data points are not as apparent as the results they provide. Businesses, like your favorite clothing store, gather data points by the way people shop and when people fill out their store surveys. Each survey and each person becomes one data point for them. The collection of data points is used by the business to decide what other clothes to offer its customers.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_point
In statistics, a data point or observation is a set of one or more measurements on a single member of a statistical population. For example, in a study of the determinants of money demand with the unit of observation being the individual, a data point might be the values of income, wealth, age of individual, number of dependents. Statistical inference about the population would be conducted using a statistical sample consisting of various such data points.
In addition, in statistical graphics, a "data point" may be an individual item with a statistical display; such points may relate to either a single member of a population or to a summary statistic calculated for a given subpopulation.

Tarjeta de puntos, tarjeta de fidelización
Por el contexto, creo que habla de las tarjetas de puntos que dan muchos establecimientos a los clientes para fidelizarles. Ofrecen descuentos y regalos y de paso consiguen los datos del cliente para enviarles promociones, felicitaciones por su cumpleaños y demás.

"Knowing your customer’s history means not just knowing what they buy, view and consume, but also why they made those decisions." -- And data points help to know consumer's purchase history. The principle of consumer behaviour involved here is 'remember.'
