I can upload a version to w3.org and hide it behind a W3C login so you 
can only see it with a W3C account. The other idea is to provide the 
page in a private GitHub repository and remove the banners from there so 
you’d need to know the URL to find it (of course locking out search 
engines).

Both is equally complicated but not a huge burden.
