Export Tips

Import Frequency

To keep your financial data current, we recommend:

  • Weekly import — for active budget managers
  • Monthly import — for basic expense tracking
  • Quarterly import — for long-term financial planning

Data Optimization

Before importing, consider:

  1. Check completeness — make sure the export covers all needed transactions
  2. Merge periods — if exporting several months, you can combine CSV files
  3. Keep backups — save your CSV files as a backup before importing

Security & Privacy

Local Processing

Freenance processes CSV files directly in your browser:

  • Data stays on your device during file analysis
  • We don't store raw banking data on our servers
  • No login credentials needed for your Alior Bank account
  • End-to-end encryption for all transmitted information

Data Control

You always have full control:

  • Delete imported transactions at any time
  • Edit categories and descriptions according to your preferences
  • Export data to other formats (CSV, PDF)
  • Manage import history — everything in one place

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Problem: CSV file won't import properly

  • Solution: Check that the file was fully downloaded and isn't corrupted

Problem: Some transactions are missing

  • Solution: Alior Bank limits exports to 3 months — run additional exports for older periods

Problem: Incorrect categorization of some expenses

  • Solution: Change the category manually — Freenance will remember the rule for next time

Problem: Duplicate transactions after re-importing

  • Solution: Freenance automatically detects duplicates based on date, amount, and description
