 * Your plugin is showing security issues for world writeable directories in various
   locations
 * They are set with 777 permissions and should be 755 to be more secure
 * Examples:
 * /public_html/wp-content/uploads/complianz/snapshots (most recent)
 * /public_html/wp-content/plugins/complianz-gdpr/assets/vendor/mpdf/mpdf/tmp
   /public_html/
   wp-content/plugins/complianz-gdpr/assets/vendor/mpdf/mpdf/tmp/mpdf/public_html/
   wp-content/plugins/complianz-gdpr/assets/vendor/mpdf/mpdf/tmp/mpdf/ttfontdata
 * Can you address this and ensure no world writeable directories are present?

 * Hello [@dmartec](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dmartec/) ,
   Thanks for reaching
   out.
 * This issue has been addressed in our latest version, 7.1.4. You can safely delete
   those folders if they’re still present. The `assets/vendor/mpdf/mpdf` folder 
   has been replaced by `uploads/complianz/snapshots/tmp`, ensuring no files are
   stored.
 * I hope this helps.
