IANAL, but my understanding is that you are incorrect. EULAs can be written such that there are irrevocable privacy rights even in the event of corporate actions. I think 23 & me is going through something like that now.
From their open letter:
> Any buyer of 23andMe will be required to comply with applicable law with respect to the treatment of customer data.

So the buyer is bound by the same terms but they absolutely do get the data ("be part of the assets transferred" as per FreeTaxUSA's terms that we are discussing).
Do you have another reference in mind?
I'm confident some of the privacy-protecting apps I use have irrevocable EULAs. But I've never seen one from a major corporation.
