Well, it depends. If you only enable access to the demo without storing any personal information, there is no prblem whatsoever.

If, in order to access the demo, you need to give your e-mail address, and you are harvesting e-mail addresses in this way, you need to inform the users you are doing so, and provide a separate unchecked box "Subscribe to the Newsletter".
