Hi @Obaid,
1. The only way to get the merchant owner's email address is through our employee data. You can use the endpoint you referenced and find the owner or you can use this endpoint, which will include the email: 
https://sandbox.dev.clover.com/v3/merchants/{mId}?expand=owner

2. At a high level:
  • Merchant is the store/restaurant/shop.
  • Employee are the employees who work at the merchant's store.
  • Customer are the customers who shop/dine at the merchant's store.
