About Reddit
Reddit's own domains cover both embedded posts and the Reddit Pixel used to measure ad conversions.
The pixel, served from alb.reddit.com and related domains, reports page visits and events back to Reddit so advertisers running Reddit campaigns can measure conversions, using an identifier such as the _rdt_uuid cookie.
Users with a Reddit account can adjust personalized-ads settings directly on the site.

Understanding this page
- What the tracker categories mean
What "advertising," "analytics," "social," "consent" and the rest actually mean for a company or a cookie, and how CookieTosser decides which one applies.
- First-party vs third-party cookies (and why "first-party" still tracks you)
What the distinction actually means technically, why browsers only block one of the two, and how CNAME cloaking, server-side tagging and cookies like _ga let sites keep tracking under their own domain.
- How to block or limit trackers
Browser privacy settings, content blockers, Global Privacy Control and clearing cookies compared honestly — what each one actually stops, what it doesn't, and what it costs you in return.
