The information may only be used or shared by such third parties for the primary purpose for which the information was originally collected. If such third parties, or if Mainly Vegan® for its own business needs, desire to use User information for another purpose, User will be notified via email and/or a prominent notice on our website of any change in ownership or uses of such information prior to the information being used for a new purpose, and User will have the opportunity to opt out of such new use of such information.
