I’m currently using Katalon Studio installed locally on my device, and I’m concerned about data security during test execution. I have a couple of specific questions:

1. Does Katalon Studio save any test data, including credentials, either locally or on Katalon’s servers during test execution?
2. If I use the recording feature, are credentials or any other sensitive information stored or transmitted to Katalon servers, or does everything remain on my local machine?\*\*

I want to ensure that all sensitive information, such as test data and credentials, is handled securely and not inadvertently uploaded to external servers. Any insights or references to official documentation would be greatly appreciated!
