It depends if you consider veganism as a philosophy or a diet. I consider it a philosophy because I do not eat leather yet veganism prohibit its use.

Being vegan means not using animal products. That's different to a plant based diet. In sports a plant based diet became popular since a documentery on Netflix, but these people aren't vegan as they do use leather, wool and bees wax for example.

As I said, veganism can be considered a diet or a philosophy. At least that's what Wikipedia and every online dictionaries say.
