  I want to close an account of someone who has left our company. I have access to his account. It says it will delete all sites associated with this account which I do NOT want to do. I also have the same site already on my account. What will happen if I close his account?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  If he owns the website, it will be deleted when you close his account. To counter this issue, I would suggest transferring the website from his account to your own account: https://en.support.wordpress.com/transferring-a-site-to-another-wordpress-com-account/

  That way, you won’t need to worry about your site being deleted if you close the account.

  If you’re talking about enateinformationsecurity.wordpress.com, the owner is the account you’re using to contact us (enateinformationsecurity).

  If the account you want to delete is enate2, then you can safely , however,t. You can however leave the account as is and just remove them from the site by following these instructions:
