  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  It is a condition of WordPress.com terms of service to display footer attribution. So it should always remain there regardless of the upgrade.

  You can learn more about in WordPress.com terms of service here: https://en.wordpress.com/tos/

  Search for Attribution on the tos page.

  As chaitanyamsv mentioned, all WordPress.com sites – including VIP clients – have a footer credit, it’s a condition of using our service.

  Also, Gateway is a free theme, so it’s not possible to “buy” it. :)
