When the regulation mandate you to provide it for free, yes…

I suspect they are providing it for free, but also selling it.

Are you sure? I'd expect this to be legal, even if they're required to delete if users make a legal request

GDPR, and right to be forgotten (a.k.a. removal of all and any PII including account)
