Where does html5 libgdx app save Preferences files?

Question

As I read here: https://github.com/libgdx/libgdx/wiki/Preferences

Preferences files will be saved to ~/.prefs/ (I'm on linux).

When I run desktop app, it works fine, and preferences file is saved to the right place. But with html5, it doesn't save that file! I'm sure it was saved somewhere, because the game still can read it (it contains scores).

My code is really simple, just:

    Preferences score = Gdx.app.getPreferences("Highscore");
    score.putInteger("score", _points);
    score.flush();

I built the game by running

./gradlew html:dist

and run it on localhost created by python

python -m SimpleHTTPServer

then go to http://localhost:8000 on Firefox.

Anyone could help? Thanks for reading, have a nice day.

I found my .prefs in my libgdx html game by running the game in Chrome, right clicking and choosing Inspect Element, clicking on the Resources tab, expanding the Local Storage tab, and examining the entry https://myAppName . This is where the .prefs are kept...
