Can I sell personal information without obtaining consent in Missouri? What are the requirements?

In Missouri, selling personal information without obtaining consent is generally prohibited. The Missouri Criminal Records Division has been designated by state law as the central repository of criminal history record information for the state ^[2.1]. Noncriminal justice agencies or citizens may receive certain criminal history record information for employment, licensing purposes or reasons stated in the request, including all conviction data, all charges for which an individual is currently under the jurisdiction of the criminal justice system, all charges resulting in an imposition of SIS until the time as the case is finally terminated, and information regarding an arrest, if it is within thirty (30) days of the arrest and no action has been taken by the prosecuting or circuit attorney ^[2.1]. However, it is unclear from the provided context whether selling personal information without obtaining consent is allowed under any circumstances.
