How do you enable "Dynamic Content" for the Start Page?

On the Start Page for Visual Studio 2013, there is a section entitled "Announcements".

Underneath that section it says:

Stay current with announcements about Visual Studio. To see the announcements please enable dynamic content.

My question is simple: Where do I go to enable "dynamic content"?

There's also a section entitled Product Videos. Underneath it is the following message:

We have a lot of great content to show you, but we need your permission to keep it updated.

Is this also enabled if you enable "dynamic content"? Or is there another setting I need to enable?
