HCM spreadsheet loader security

Summary

Do HCM spreadsheet loaders follow the data role security (areas of responsibilities)

Content

We currently have all of our HR users setup with data roles which contain person security profiles setup with Representatives. Pretty much this means that their access is controlled using 'Areas of Responsiblity'. This restricts them to only be able to view/manage employees for a certain region. For example, a certain country.

We need to open up HCM spreadsheet loaders to this team, but from what I understand, the data security I described above would not apply. Is this correct? If so, any way to apply security to eliminate the possibility for them to do a load for any employees not in their scope of responsibility?
