I think that the "Typeset by the bidi package" message is much too
modest. It should read something along the lines "Typeset by the bidi
package developed by Vafa Khalighi for over 12 years without any funding
or donations." In fact I think that every class/package used in a
document should typeset similar wording about itself and its provenance
on the top of the first page of any (All)TeX document. Many classes and
packages have been developed over many more than 12 years, particularly
TeX and LaTeX.

the bidi author gives some justification for this here
https://github.com/tex-xet/bidi/issues/60
but to be honest I think that this is a really bad default, and
polyglossia probably should disable this while loading bidi rather
than rely on the user to find an undocumented option in an internally
loaded package.

After loading the polyglossia package (but before selecting a language
that reads right-to-left) try adding
\usepackage[logo=off]{bidi}
Strangely the default is logo=on and the option is not documented.
