1. Allow Cross-Site Tracking
   What? If your device cannot open the Kaltura Upload screen you may need to disable the "Prevent Cross-Site Tracking" security setting on your device.
   Why? Cross-Site Tracking is a cookies-based service which connects sites together and holds memory data. When you access the Kaltura platform via COTROnline, Kaltura relies on data from COTROnline and vice-versa. When Cross-Site Tracking is turned off, this connection fails and your browser fails to load the Kaltura application.
   How?

On an iPhone:

• Go to Settings and search for Safari
• Scroll down to Privacy and Security
• Turn off "Prevent Cross-Site Tracking"

On Safari desktop:

• Go to Safari > Preferences and select Privacy
• Turn off "Prevent cross-site tracking"

On Chrome:

• Go to More : Settings
• Under "Privacy and Security" click "Cookies" or "Site Data"
• Turn "Send a "do not track" request off
