    Hi, I have an account that I can no longer access since I lost access to the email associated with it.

    I’d like to make it private, which is possible based on what I’ve read in the account recovery information, but I’m not sure how to go about this.

    I can’t seem to speak to anyone about this without a paid plan, and I don’t want to spend $48 just to get a website taken down.

    What should I do?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)

    Hey! We can get this handled for you, no worries.

    Could you please confirm the address of the site you’re referring to? I checked the site specified in your request but it is currently in Coming Soon mode, meaning it is not publicly accessible.
