Kroscloud's embeddable 3D and 360° viewer sets no cookies, loads no third-party trackers, and never fingerprints your visitors. Drop it into any website and the interactive scene appears instantly — no consent gate, no friction, no compliance headache. It's the privacy-first alternative to Sketchfab.
Embed on EU-facing sites without a consent gate.
Every consent dialog between your visitor and your content is friction — an extra click, a moment of hesitation, and a measurable drop in engagement. A viewer that needs no banner keeps your embed clean, fast, and compliant.
Visitors see your 3D scene immediately — no overlay to dismiss before the content loads.
No cookies, no trackers, and no fingerprinting means nothing to disclose and nothing to consent to.
Built to be embedded on EU-facing sites without adding the viewer to your cookie consent flow.
Paste a single embed code — just like a YouTube video — and the consent-free viewer is live.
Both let you share interactive 3D in the browser. The difference shows up the moment your embed touches a privacy-conscious or EU audience.

"Consent-free" isn't a marketing claim — it's an engineering contract. Here is exactly what the embedded viewer does and does not do for an anonymous visitor.
Session and ad-attribution middleware are switched off on the viewer route, so the page returns the 3D scene with no Set-Cookie headers.
Owners still get viewing time and interaction stats from an in-memory, per-load token that is never stored and carries no credentials — only anonymized aggregates. See Scene Analytics.
A little localStorage remembers the visitor's own preferences (mute, measurement unit); nothing is shared, sold, or used to track.
We publish exactly what the embedded viewer stores and why, so you can hand it to your DPO or paste it into your own privacy notice.
Publish 3D scans and virtual tours on public, EU-facing institutional websites without gating priceless content behind a consent overlay. Pair with audio guides for a museum-grade experience.
Drop interactive property walkthroughs and floor plans into listing portals where every extra click costs a lead.
Embed 3D artifacts and site documentation in course pages and journals on strict university privacy policies — no tracking scripts to clear with IT.
Deliver white-label 3D presentations inside client websites without inheriting their consent-management setup. See how to embed a scene.
No. For anonymous visitors the embedded viewer sets no cookies, loads no third-party trackers, and performs no fingerprinting, so it does not require your site to display a cookie consent banner before the 3D content appears. This follows the same consent-free embed approach as Matterport.
A Sketchfab embed can place cookies and trackers on your visitors' browsers, which typically obliges the host site to gate the iframe behind a consent dialog before the model loads. Kroscloud's viewer is cookieless and tracker-free for anonymous visitors, so the scene loads immediately — while still offering audio guides, layers, GPS, and measurements.
It uses no cookies. It uses a small amount of
localStorage only to remember the visitor's own UI preferences (such as
mute state and measurement unit) and tab-scoped sessionStorage for
crash-recovery. None of it identifies the visitor or is used for tracking.
Scene owners still get viewing-time and interaction analytics, but the pipeline is fully cookieless and ID-free. It uses an in-memory, per-load session token that is never persisted, sends no credentials, and stores only anonymized aggregate metrics.
Yes. By avoiding cookies, third-party trackers, fingerprinting, and persistent visitor identifiers for anonymous visitors, the embedded viewer is designed to be used on EU-facing websites without a consent banner. Full details are on the Viewer Data Privacy page.
Yes. You can customize the viewer colors, localize the interface, and replace the Kroscloud logo with your own brand for a seamless, white-label embed — all without changing its consent-free behavior.
Create a free Kroscloud account, upload a scene, and paste one iframe into your site. Your visitors get the 3D content instantly — and you keep your embed clean, fast, and consent-free.
