Some users have reported difficulties logging into DTD - the Log In Form is submitted, but simply redirects back to the Log In Form. We have identified an issue with some browsers and third party cookies that occasionally will cause this behaviour.

Make sure all checkboxes are selected.
Under the doughnut chart, click on “Clear site data”.
Refresh the page and log back in.
