Can a store legally keep your money if you do not redeem store credit within a certain time?

Laws differ from state-to-state based on how the store gives you credit. In general, the legal opinion is that you have paid the store for the right to purchase something at a later date and the credit may expire sometime in the future. So, yes, legally, a store may keep your money if at the time you accepted the credit they clearly indicated that the credit would expire after some period of time.

Does a store clerk need to check the 3 security numbers on the rear of a credit card?

The answer depends on the store's policy on processing credit card transactions. Every merchant that accepts credit cards has a policy concerning how they choose to authenticate credit cards. Generally, the more checks that the merchant does, the lower the cost of the transaction for that merchant. Many retail stores (suggesting store clerks) do check the three security numbers on the back and enter that information into the register/reader when conducting the transaction. Having those three numbers helps indicate that the transaction was done with "card in possession." IF you are not sure that a store clerk is handling your credit card correctly, ask to speak with a store manager and ask the process that they use to process a credit card transaction at the register.

When using your credit card at an offline grocery store how much of your receipt's information is given to the card company?

Very little ! The credit card company is only interested in facts about the transaction - such as the date, the amount and the retailer's details (so they can pay the retailer on your behalf). The card company is not interested in what you actually bought - whether that's a weeks groceries or some adult magazines !
