Can I import an excel spreadsheet with suplimentary information to existing contacts?

I have an Excel spreadsheet that has a list of both new and old contacts as well as new information for both that I want to import. I'm afraid it will overwrite the information I already have for those existing contacts rather than add the new information. Is there something I need to do or will it automatically add the new contacts as well as the new information to existing contacts?

    You can use dataloader.io

     

    - You can use the Upsert ... 

     

    - You will need to use a key filed which is unique.. e.g. email ..

     

    if the email exisit it will update the information , if it doesnt then it will be created
