 * I use profile builder for registration in a website, time to time users contact
   me about their information is on google search, where they can even access their
   CVs, I spoke with IT team and they explain that due to the plugin profile builder,
   can you fix this or I have to replace it!!! this putting me in a critical situation
   for non respecting GPDR.
 * Thanks

 * Hi [@ab500](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ab500/),
 * When you say information, are you referring to information like: Username, First
   Name, Last Name, etc. (that are from the Default fields), or are you referring
   to media information, like pictures, PDF, CSV, etc?
 * Best regards,

 * Hello again, thank you for your reply, unfortunally I can see both the personal
   info of the user plus the link of the CV, by only a search in google.

 * Hi [@ab500](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ab500/),
 * Specifically to our plugin, that information can appear **only** if you’ve created
   a front-end [User Listing](https://www.cozmoslabs.com/docs/profile-builder/modules/user-listing/)
   of your users (where that information is displayed).
 * In case you do not have a User Listing created with our plugin then please check
   on your site to not have a plugin that also has that information or that has 
   a similar user listing functionality.
 * Now regarding the Uploaded Files (png, pdf, csv, etc.) those are added inside
   the WordPress Media Gallery and they have attachment pages and are also indexed(
   this is a default WordPress functionality). In case you want to disable this,
   then you can try to do that by following the information from here: [https://www.greengeeks.com/tutorials/set-wordpress-to-disable-attachment-pages-for-media/](https://www.greengeeks.com/tutorials/set-wordpress-to-disable-attachment-pages-for-media/).
 * Best regards,
