Do I need a wordpress.com account if I host my wordpress elsewhere?

I’m wondering if I need this account to continue running my blog on separate hosting? What would happen if I deleted it?
WP.com: Unknown
Jetpack: Yes
Correct account: YesThe blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You don’t need a WordPress.com user account if you host your website elsewhere EXCEPT if you’re using the Jetpack plugin.
If your site is using the Jetpack plugin, they require that you connect to a WordPress.com user account in order to activate all of Jetpack’s features like stats, subscriptions, etc. You can read more about this here:

I hope that clarifies things!
