Cannot disable desktop notifications

Description of the issue:
I’m a new user and I keep getting really annoying desktop notifications that I don’t know how to disable. It’s always for random news articles and stuff like that and I don’t want to be seeing them. I’ve dug through privacy settings and I can’t find a content settings page (I poked around the forum before posting this and I saw something about that)

Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. Just using the browser and wait for ads/desktop notifs to pop up

Actual Result (gifs and screenshots are welcome!):
I couldn’t get a screenshot for some reason so I just took a picture on my phone - I know it’s not ideal I’m sorry. Here’s an example of an ad I just got:

Expected result:
No annoying notifications

Reproduces how often:
Multiple times a day

Operating System and Brave Version: Windows 10, Version 0.67.124 Chromium: 76.0.3809.100 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Additional Information:
None
