“Allow apps permission to track” won’t let me toggle it on.

Hi there, so I’m trying to turn on the “allow apps permission to track” feature but the button is greyed out and off by default. Is there any way I can turn it on / find out why it’s greyed out?

What version of iOS do you have? That setting on my phone with iOS 14.3 is “Allow apps to request to track” and under Apple Advertising it’s "Personalized Ads"


Also, in Settings/Safari what is “Prevent Cross-Site Tracking” set to? And do you have any content blockers under Safari settings?
