1Password Keeps opening a welcome tab in Safari

I have no idea what is going on, but 1Password has suddenly started opening a welcome tab every 30 minutes or so in Safari. I have included the images below that show what the tab looks like. It has three items to click through. When you get to the last one, you would think you are good to go and it is set up. So I close the tab. But then it just opens a new one in 20-30 minutes. 

What is going on? Here are my Safari and 1Password versions.

I'm seeing the same behavior. 1Password version 8.12.12 and 1Password extension version 8.12.12.44.

Hi @gmpalter thank you for getting back to us.

It looks like one of my colleague's has reached out to you via email. I recommend continuing to troubleshoot there to prevent any duplication of effort and so we can discuss any account-specific information securely.

Let me know if you have any questions!

-Chris
