Does the _rdt_cid cookie require consent?
_rdt_cid is used for advertising, so under the GDPR and the ePrivacy rules it may only be set after the visitor has agreed. Showing a banner is not enough on its own: the cookie must not be set before the visitor clicks accept.
Does your site set _rdt_cid before consent?
A free scan loads your site the way a new visitor sees it and lists every cookie that is set before anyone has said yes, _rdt_cid included.
How to put _rdt_cid behind consent
Remove the Reddit Pixel snippet from your site and add your Reddit Pixel ID under Integrations in Consentify instead. Consentify then loads Reddit Pixel only after the visitor has accepted advertising, so _rdt_cid is never set before consent.
