  Hello, I’ve deleted my site, – I want to know how securely the personal information I provided to set it up will now be held,
  It is not possible to delete the account, – so is my personal information protected, and not available publicly on the internet ?
  I repeatedly messaged Help admin about this before deleting site, – but received no reply – ..
  Thank you

  Did you create a separate profile on Gravatar or fill out information in your account profile here on WordPressdotcom? If so, you will want to edit that information here https://wordpress.com/me and then for Gravatar click on the @mbodyhome on that account page, log in to Gravatar to edit any info you added there. Alternately, when you are logged in on Gravatar, click to view your profile and then click on the “Hide my Profile” button.

  Let us know if you need any further assistance on that.

  I’m pretty certain that the Privacy policy I linked to in my first answer covers your questions, but to be absolutely sure I’ve tagged this thread for Staff input. Please be patient while waiting for their reply.

  @JenT is correct in that:

  We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.

  Privacy Policy

  Rest assured, for security reasons and for your protection, we would not divulge any information of yours to anyone else without your permission unless under the rare circumstances mentioned above. Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information in the link above pretty much sums up how you are protected.

  Let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks!
