It has been owned by a data mining company for a number of years.

Sure, but the duration of the ownership doesn't matter a whole lot in this sort of situation. If you've missed the news about the selling when it happened, it's relatively unlikely you'll learn about it afterwards. I don't periodically do a background check of all the devs and owners of my apps.
