you can start by asking google to remove your pages:

https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/removals

***

from this site: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/crawling/block-indexing

To prevent most search engine web crawlers from indexing a page on your site, place the following meta tag into the <head> section of your page:

<meta name="robots" content="noindex">

To prevent only Google web crawlers from indexing a page:

<meta name="googlebot" content="noindex">

****

you can add this in x5:

step1 -> advanced TAB -> statisctics and code -> expert tab -> set this in after opening the HEAD tag (pulldown in x5)


<meta name="robots" content="noindex">

<meta name="googlebot" content="noindex">

you might also add this in the Basic tab of same section, where the robots.txt is.
