Spanish term or phrase: volcar copies de seguridad
Now which way round is this:

El servicio X le permite volcar copias de seguridad en su ordenador y recuperarlas en cualquier momento.
Tenga sus datos a salvo y siempre disponibles.

This is a banking service. Does it mean you can download backup copies onto your computer, or the other way around. The word recuperar seems to indicate the other way around, but I'm not sure.
cheers

create backup copies in your computer


Explanation:
You can create a backup copy within your computer for security reasons. You don't necessarily have to upload them to another place, and I thing that's what they mean here when they say "en su computador." The word "volcar" does seem to have been misused here though... it's confusing.
