Settings are saved per browser tab, so they will be remembered for your whole visit.
Open My Eyes - Have you ever been engrossed in your work, when you suddenly realize someone is staring at your screen, watching everything you do over your shoulder? If not, this simulates the experience.

Positions are remembered per tab, so as you navigate around the site, they will stay in the same place for your whole visit.
Enjoy!
