  Hello,

  I am one of the admins of a company’s current website. After some web searching my supervisor found a wordpress version of our website that is incredibly outdated and that we want to be taken down or at least removed from google search results. Due to staff upheavals and high turnover we are unaware of the what login information for this wordpress account is, but if we knew the email associated with the account could likely could recover everything. What do you recommend as our next step to get the outdated version of the site taken down?

  Ok, the site can only be deleted by its owner following this guide: https://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  If you do not recall the information for that account, we have some options at https://en.support.wordpress.com/account-recovery/

  Again, the site can only be removed by its owner, we can accept no exceptions.

  One alternative though, if the site infringes on your copyright and not in a way that is subjected to fair use (consult a legal professional for specifics), you can report it: https://automattic.com/dmca-notice/
