Privacy Policy
Checked 2026-10-28. This page answers one question: which third parties load, what they store, and how to change that choice
Who is responsible
The operator of RagdollDrop.net is the controller for this site and for the choice stored in your browser. Email [email protected]. The site does not run accounts, does not ask for a name, and does not sell personal information.
What loads, and when
This site loads advertising, analytics and session-recording tags on the first view. There is no “accept before anything loads” gate: a visitor with no stored choice is treated as granted, the notice banner is shown, and only pressing Reject turns the optional tags off. Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track is treated as Reject. The same choice can be changed at any time with Cookie settings in the footer.
Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-14GM1G8P6K) loads gtag.js from www.googletagmanager.com on every page and sends measurement requests to www.google-analytics.com. It sends page views, approximate location derived from IP, device and browser information, and interaction events. Google Consent Mode v2 is configured in the page head; the analytics_storage signal is granted so page counting works, and the three advertising signals (ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization) follow the banner choice.
Microsoft Clarity (project z4lc7cd146) loads clarity.ms on the first view unless you have rejected. The observed script and collection hosts are www.clarity.ms, scripts.clarity.ms and regional *.clarity.ms collection subdomains (for example a.clarity.ms, q.clarity.ms or z.clarity.ms); Microsoft’s script may also contact c.bing.com for its own identifiers. It records session replays, heatmaps and click/scroll metrics. Form inputs and other sensitive content are masked by Clarity’s default masking; the replay is tied to a random Clarity visitor and session id, not to a name.
Adsterra (publisher 3403020, website 6156338) serves two units: Native Banner 31960864 in the page flow, and Social Bar 31960865 in the fixed bar at the bottom. Adsterra’s loader is requested from bicea.org. In the local build check on 2026-10-28, its creative also requested static.nresystems.com, cdn.storageimagedisplay.com, cdn.show-sb.com or cdn.show-creative1.com, and cdn.cloudpiko.com. These serve ad logic or assets and can receive the request IP and browser information. The creative can change and may set its own cookies. Adult ads are switched off for this website. Reject removes the units and reloads this page to stop code already running; they are not requested on later visits while your rejection is saved.
YouTube is not contacted until you press a play button. The click creates an iframe to https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/, and that is when Google can set YouTube cookies and receive the video id and your IP. There is no autoplaying embed on page load.
Pages are otherwise static. Fonts are files on this host. Outbound links to Poki, CrazyGames, Steam and other sites are their own controllers once you leave.
Cookies and localStorage
The site’s own code writes two localStorage keys rather than cookies. Vendor scripts can set cookies on this domain or their own domains. The table distinguishes documented examples from fields whose exact names or lifetimes were not confirmed.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| rdd_consent_v1 | RagdollDrop.net (localStorage) | Your choice: granted or denied, plus an expiry timestamp | 180 days |
| rdd_ad_bar_closed | RagdollDrop.net (localStorage) | Remembers that you hid the Social Bar | 180 days |
| _ga | Google Analytics 4 | Distinguishes browsers for aggregate reporting | 2 years |
| _ga_14GM1G8P6K | Google Analytics 4 | Keeps session state for this measurement ID | 2 years |
| _clck | Microsoft Clarity | Persists the Clarity visitor id | Vendor controlled; see Microsoft cookie documentation |
| _clsk | Microsoft Clarity | Stitches a session’s page views together | Vendor controlled; see Microsoft cookie documentation |
| MUID, CLID, ANONCHK, SM, MR | Microsoft domains (Clarity / Bing) | Identifiers and synchronization documented by Microsoft; availability depends on browser settings | Vendor controlled |
| Ad delivery identifiers | Adsterra / bicea.org and the served creative | Delivery and frequency measurement; exact cookie names and expiry vary with the creative and browser | Not independently confirmed; see Adsterra policy |
| Playback storage | YouTube (only after you press play) | Playback preferences and abuse prevention; varies by browser and player | Vendor controlled |
Adsterra controls the names and lifetimes of its own cookies; its policy is linked under Sources. Blocking third-party cookies in your browser limits all of the rows above.
Retention
The consent record and the hidden-bar flag stay in your browser for 180 days, then the banner asks again. You can delete both at any time by clearing site data for ragdolldrop.net.
Google Analytics event-data retention is controlled by the property setting; this review did not retrieve that setting, so no fixed event-retention period is claimed here. Aggregated reports may have separate retention. Clarity applies its own retention rules to recordings and heatmaps; this guide does not claim an independently verified project setting. Adsterra keeps its delivery logs under its own policy. Server logs at the host may keep IP, user agent, URL and time for security.
Legal basis and your rights
This implementation uses a default-on notice and an opt-out: it stores “granted” on first view without waiting for a click. That stored value describes the site’s technical setting; it is not evidence that you clicked Accept. Reject stops advertising and Clarity recording, reloads the page and remembers the choice for 180 days. Google Analytics continues page counting with analytics_storage granted. Requests already sent cannot be recalled.
Serving the static pages and keeping short-lived security logs is our legitimate interest in running the guide. You can ask for access, correction or deletion of anything you sent us, object to processing, or withdraw consent by emailing [email protected]. You can also complain to your local data-protection authority.
Personalized advertising and opt-outs
Adsterra may serve interest-based advertising. You can limit it with the industry tools: Google Ads Settings, YourAdChoices (US) and Your Online Choices (EU/UK). Browser-level tracking protection and Global Privacy Control are honored by this site as a Reject.
This site does not build profiles of its own and does not combine the analytics and advertising data into a CRM record.
Children and changes
The guide is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect their contact details. This policy changes by editing this page; the date above is the version date.
I checked the built pages against this text. Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity and Adsterra are requested on the first view; the YouTube player is created when you press play. The banner is a notice with a working Reject, not a gate: Reject turns the ads and the session recording off and is remembered for 180 days.
