They may also sell the data.

Selling your data would be stupid, because they make money with the fact that they have data about you nobody else has. Selling it would completely break their business model.

Depends why they are selling it, to whom, and under what restrictions.

Yes, they don't make the majority of their money from selling actual data, but that doesn't mean they don't do it.
