Well, it's definitely possible. The signal to noise ratio would make it kind of self defeating.
However, what all app developers have access to is the iTunes/Google Play account info, which essentially means first, last, and city (and at least partial address) for those who download/purchase their app. But again, the risk/reward ratio isn't amenable to abuse. But yea, there's a possibility.

You're absolutely correct, and Google's not much friendlier. Both Apple and Google are down with a certain degree of plausible deniability, though. That's how apps like Tinder and Grindr get to stay-- framing them as dating and social instead of sex cruising apps gives deniability. It's all about not being explicit.
You might still be right about an expiration date on it, though. Apple can be finicky like that.
