The recommendation is to use the API for settings and persist them in the tabmodules area
so each set of settings is specific to the module instance on the page - naturally you can use other stores such as portalsettings if you want a different scope but tabmodules is the most common - http://www.sipidcode.com/post/DotNetNuke-5-module-development-tutorial-part-6-The-settings-control.aspx is a good example

I suggest checking out module templates included in DNN VS Starterkit, which demonstrate, how to load and save a setting easily in settings control and use it in view/edit. Be aware that settings might be specified per module instance (modulesettings) or for each page reference to a module instance (tabmodulesettings). For special cases, you may also store it as site or host setting.
