HI @Rosemarie Power 

Begin by moving your project to trash and from there delete it permanently.
Go to Settings -> Projects.

To learn morePermanently delete a service project | Jira Service Management Cloud | Atlassian Support

Consider removing Confluence Links
In Confluence, manually delete any pages or spaces linked to the Jira project.

For your Privacy
On the free plan, you cannot make projects completely private.
To limit access, go to Settings-> User Management.
Set up your site so users must be invited to access it.

Give a fresh Start
Create a new project after deleting the old one.
Be cautious when setting up, as the free plan has limited privacy options.

Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!
Thank you very much and have a great one!
Warm regards
