How do I stop notifications from loading on my phone?

I hardly ever use my phone for online purposes but was in another state for a few weeks and wanted to pop into DU for the news. Eventually a little box appeared at the top of a DU page and asked if it's ok for DU to send me notifications - I accepted.

After getting back home I returned to using my laptop for internet access. Within a week or so, I turned on my phone to check the battery and was surprised to see a log-jam of little icons lined up at the top of my phone - where the notifications show up.

I pulled the notification page down and opened the icons one by one - they were all connected to DU threads, presumably sent because I gave the 'ok' for DU to send me notifications - I do not subscribe to any threads or forums.

Question is, how do I stop these notifications from loading onto my phone?

Thanks!
