Hiding Taxonomy meta box on edit screen

Hello
I’ve created two taxonomies for my custom post type – when editing an entry with ACF I’d like them to be hidden on the edit screen – I’v toggled “Categories” and “Tags” in the “Hide on Screen” section but they still appear:

I’ve set “show_ui” to false when setting up the taxonomies and that makes them disappear – however they also disappear from the left admin menu section and I’d rather have them there.

Am I missing something here – anybody found a solution to this.

Thanks

When registering your custom taxonomy set meta_box_cb to false https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_taxonomy
