I'm assuming that the Editor control could be used to replace text area entries on a form and the data would be saved as usual with a Post to the server.
However, let's assume that I wanted to use it as a way for an admin user to edit content on the website - such as the the 'About' section of their webpage.
Since this data isn't stored in the database and just text on an html page, how would I go about saving these edits?

you can't do it without server side, so if you don't have it in database, you still need to send it via POST/GET/WEBSOCKET to your server side code like PHP/C# etc and than change your file on server. But i think it easier just to put it into database? Javascript can't modify any file on server or even client (ok there is File API to change on client side, but only in sandboxed folder and it works only in chrome atm).
Guys from telerik can't change anything to modify your html files.

Thanks Piotr. Saving in a database is no big deal. I was just curious if it were possible somehow to write small changes to the html (like you'd write changes to an xml file) without using the database. I'll stick with the database and just use the editor as it was meant to be used.
