Hi Jan,
Form Tools doesn't do anything explicitly with cookies, but it does use PHP / database sessions - which stores a unique UID cookie in your browser to maintain the user session ID.
Safety-wise, there's not much info I can pass along really. I've always been concerned about security and have fixed everything when found. We've had the script audited twice, most recently a few months ago for a client. It uncovered a few minor issues, all of which were included in 2.1.0.
The accounts were upgraded in a recent version to beef up security, adding settings for automatically locking accounts after X failed logins, forcing "tough" passwords, and such stuff.
