Go to Settings.

In the search settings box type "Notifications & Actions" and go to that window.

I've turned pretty much everything off on that page. YMMV.

After you've done that, click on the Settings Home icon, top left hand side. From this screen select Privacy.

Deal with everything you don't want to see by turning them off.

Of course, it's possible that this is an Edge thing and you'll need to look for the settings yourself because I've never used it. Maybe you should consider another browser.
