I'm not sure about what you mean by "the output produces a HTML file".

If you are generating a *file *through your code, then the file is where
you save it: normally that is local. If you don't use absolute paths in
your code, they will be where the interpreter is running. In Spyder, the
interpreter is usually in the path displayed in the path bar, one of the
last pieces in the toolbar. Of course, your code can put the files anywhere
you want them to be placed. If it opens in a browser, you can see where the
file is in the browser's address bar.

If you're using web stuff, however, that usually means a server, like the
one that serves the Jupyter/IPython notebook. That code is actually a web
server, so it can be accessed remotely, if it is configured to serve pages
outside your local machine. I'm not sure if its default configuration
allows that or not, so it's better to check. So I checked mine and the
server will only accept connections from my local machine.

I also checked my default ipython kernel loading and it only accepts local
connections.

Just be aware that using big distributions like Anaconda, among
"everything", something may be non-local.
