@mgmcderm Have you ever tried disabling Shields on those websites? Features like fingerprint randomization can make your device appear different, which might cause the site to question whether the cookie is valid and trigger extra verification like you’re seeing.

Thanks. I didn’t know about that option. It seems to be working.
