Microsoft Office 30 personal days of trial against Microsoft Office 365

I recently bought a Dell XPS 8900 with 10 Windows installed. The package I purchased includes a 30 day trial of Microsoft Office. At the same time, I bought a copy of Microsoft Office 365 Personal (annual subscription).

As part of the installation process, I downloaded and installed Microsoft Office 365 Personal, which includes access 2016 2016 Excel, OneNote 2016, 2016 Outlook, PowerPoint 2016, 2016 Publisher and Word 2016.

Silly me, I planned that install an official, paid for the version of Office would be to uninstall everything that came with the 30 days trial version, but there are pieces left over, and I'm not sure what I can do with them safely (safe as in, it won't mess up the installation of Office products that I bought) :

There is a 'Get Office' icon in the start menu and a 'Get Office' entry in the Apps section & functionality of the system control panel.

Is it safe to just uninstall it?

There seems to be two copies of installed OneNote. The first, named OneNote 2016, seems to be the one I bought. Its icon in the start menu has a light blue background, like all the other "official" Office components The icon in the start menu for the other copy is named simply OneNote and has a purple background. There is also an icon with the same purple background in the Notification bar. When I fly over this icon, it says "new quick note. This second copy of OneNote, the one with the purple background, is listed in the list of Apps & features, but not in Control Panel programs & features.

Is it safe to uninstall the second instance of OneNote (the one with the purple background icon)? If so, how to manage it? When I click on the entry for OneNote in section Apps & features (which indicates a size 272 KB, which does not resemble any kind of real app), the uninstall option is grayed out. And there is no entry for OneNote in Control Panel programs & features (admission-only on the desktop in this list is "Microsoft Office 365 - en - us").

To summarize my questions:

1. can I uninstall the app 'Get Office' Apps & features?

2. can I uninstall this second copy of OneNote, and if so, how?

As usual, Microsoft has managed to confuse me and cluttering up my desktop. Any help would be appreciated.
