  Hello there,

  You cannot delete a WordPress.com account for good, but you can empty it out from all your data and leave it inactive.
  Here are the steps to make sure that any of your personal data can’t be fetched once you decide to leave WordPress:

  – Empty your site: https://en.support.wordpress.com/empty-site/
  – Delete your site: https://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/
  – Remove all personal information from your account settings: https://en.support.wordpress.com/account-settings/
  – Change your password to a random string: https://en.support.wordpress.com/passwords/#change-your-password

  Hope this helps. If you get stuck at any step, just let me know and I’ll be glad to help – or alternatively type modlook to the tag box of this page to let the Staff know that you require further assistance.
