Yes, that is okay There is also such a question in the GPL FAQ: http://gnu.mirror.xaranet.de/licenses/gpl-faq.html#CompanyGPLCostsMoney But when you can get a copy anyhow, you could put it online. That would be legal, whether they like it or not. But I assume, they mostly charge for their support, and that's okay. Am Saturday, dem 21.
