A divident, while logically possible, may be practically quite difficult to implement and regulate effectively. Not that we shouldn't try to do it, it'll just be hard. I think there's a simpler way to solve this. This is just an exchange, you're getting a product, and you're giving away to them and all subsequent third parties all the rights to your data in exchange. That's your payment. The problem here is that this is your only form of payment by default for that tier of product and that sucks. In my opinion it should illegal to do that by default without first giving the customer the option to pay in money in exchange that exact same product. And if I'm paying I don't want you sharing my personally identifiable information shared with no analytics, no tracking, no third-party consulting and if you can't pass a security audit or can't figure out how to anonymize/encrypt my information properly, I don't want you accessing it in clear form at all outside your company promises including from your remote employees. I think that's fair. If you're startup and can't afford to pay for a credible audit, then you shouldn't be allowed to even know my first name. You'll have to use a secure and audited intermediary to provide you that in anonymized form and you figure out how to handle on your own.
