No, I was merely referring to "selling" as it pertains to products, not services. Your data would be a product, not a service. They may build services around your data that use it in some way, but it'd be the service they'd be selling, not your data. Just like how Uber would be selling a ridesharing service, not your car.

No different than if I sell to you knowledge of the fact that cardholder XYZ lives at 123 Main St, has phone number 555-867-5309, and shopped at Giant Dildos, LLC 3 times in the summer of 2019.
