Absolutely. You authorized additional pulls of your credit when you established the account. This is not only legal, but customary. Credit card issuers periodically check your credit to see how you are managing your financial obligations. If they notice late payments on other credit accounts, they can use clauses in your contract to raise your interest rate, even if you have never paid THEM late. They also perform an inquiry into your credit report in conjunction with an increase of your credit limit.

A hard pull of your credit history is done when a potential lender retrieves your credit file on your behalf for the purpose of deciding whether to extend credit to you or not.

Click on the coin on the top left corner, pull out your credit card and use it ;)
A consumer has access to his own credit. When you apply for loans, you authorize the lender to pull your credit. You also give permission to prospective employers as well as in other matters where the information is relevant. Collection agencies pull your credit to research information about your situation, your employer, current address, etc. The general public does not have access to credit files. Those who have access to personal consumer credit reports, are the credit agencies, credit card companies (should you apply), mortgage firms and banks, and car dealerships (should you buy a car and not pay in cash).
No it does not -- it is called a soft inquiry. The credit bureaus classify companies who pull a credit report. Some companies pull credit reports for lending, others use credit reports for non-lending purposes. Hard inquiries are those that count against credit scores and are from lenders upon an inquiry for credit. Soft inquiries or those used for non-lending practices do not count against credit scores. From the classifications used by credit bureaus, the credit scoring system can determine the type of inquiry (whether for credit or otherwise) that is pulled.
