The appearance of such links is theme dependent, as would the ability to show them or not through a theme setting or customizer. Some WP template tags that output such links have filters where you can alter the appearance or suppress entirely. You can add filter code to a site specific plugin or child theme. You could directly edit your theme’s code instead, but then your changes will be lost during the next update.
A quick, persistent, safe from updates, and relatively easy way to suppress links is to hide them with CSS rules added to the customizer Additional CSS panel. If you need help determining such CSS, we will need to see a live version of a typical page like t-p has already asked for.
