You have no 4th amendment rights against a private party. Depending on your state, the store can detain you until police arrive if they suspect you of shoplifting.

    The key phrase there is "if they suspect you of shoplifting" which means they need to have actual fucking evidence and merely refusing their rent-a-gestapo bullshit doesn't cut it.

    Otherwise, they're the ones committing the crime of false imprisonment.
