Pre-2020 Grindr data is apparently available from third parties as it was apparently possible before then for an advertising data broker to intercept personal data and package it for resale.

From the article:

[A Grindr spokesperson] told Gizmodo that Grindr made changes to the data it shares with its ad tech partners in 2020, which came after a study showed the company endangered users by exposing information that could reveal people’s identity and sexuality.

It’s worth noting though that the US doesn’t have any federal laws for consumer data privacy or protection that would stop Grindr from selling user data or allowing third parties to collect it again in the future. Just something to keep in mind, unless the laws change.
