You can you UserPreference module to save some setting: global $current_user;
$user_preferences = new UserPreference($current_user);
$user_preferences->setPreference('preference_name','preference_value','some_preference_identifier'); //set some settings to SESSION
$user_preferences->savePreferencesToDB(); //set some settings from SESSION to DB

$preferences = $user_preferences->getPreference('preference_name','some_preference_identifier'); //get setting by name
