Dropbox badge popup when opening Word doc on Mac

Every time I open a document in MS word on Mac, I get a popup on the right side of the screen telling me about the the wonderful new Dropbox badge. I then have to click "Hide" to get rid to the Dropbox advertisement and get on with my work. Now that I have been told about this about 500 times I am ready for it to stop, but searching for how to do that in Help gives no useful info.  Does anyone know how to kill this obnoxious popup?  This is really turning me off on Dropbox.
