Access to repair the phone isn't the same as permission to copy and distribute. Similarly if I give a valet keys to my car it is to park it, it is not giving permission to take it out for a joyride.

It is questionable whether this would be legal if the repair tech took ownership of the phone for non-payment like was done with Hunter Biden's phone. Does ownership only apply to the hardware or to the data too?
