Read only database transfer...

  • nope.

    if you give the data away, you give up control of the data.

    if you give someone a backup of the data, it's a copy. once they restore it, they can do anything they want to the data;

    to maintain read only you would have to host the data yourself, and give them remote access via a user that you've put in the role db_readonly, for example.

    even then, if they can read it, they can copy it, and thus modify copies of the data.
