# Firefly III Data Importer
|
||
|
|
"Firefly III" is a (self-hosted) manager for your personal finances. It can help you keep track of your expenses and income, so you can spend less and save more. The **data importer** is built to help you import transactions into Firefly III. It is separated from Firefly III for security and maintenance reasons.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The data importer does not connect to your bank directly. Instead, it uses [Nordigen](https://nordigen.com/en/coverage/) and [SaltEdge](https://www.saltedge.com/products/spectre/countries) to connect to over 6000 banks worldwide. These services are free for Firefly III users, but require registration. Keep in mind these services have their own privacy and data usage policies.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The data importer can import CSV files you've downloaded from your bank.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can run the data importer once, for a bulk import. You can also run it regularly to keep up with new transactions.
