You should talk with your team's lawyers again; it's normally understood
that the GPL's provisions on promising to provide source code for three
years only applies to people to whom you distribute binaries.

If you never distribute anything then you're under no obligation to
provide anyone with a promise of source code for three years.

Thanks
