This doesn't sound right... If they want to use your data, it's up to
you how to give them the data they want.

Basically, SOAP is a protocol that allows one program (SOAP client, or
service consumer) to send an XML-formatted message to another program
(SOAP server, or service provider) and receive an XML-formatted message
in response. In your case, it seems like you need to deploy a service
provider (you'll probably need a consumer for testing).
