No, you're legally obliged to keep the service running. They are paying customers and even if you can't reach them through email there are other means of communications. If a business fails on account of your one-sided deleting of the data then you're going to be in for a very hard time, for instance a damage claim for gross negligence and breach of contract. This isn't just going to blow over. The onus for reliable communications is on you and if the channel you've got fails then you seek another one.
