Form data pre population

I have read through the numerous prepopulation posts but none of them addresses the requirement I have.

I need to prepopulate a fillable PDF form with some information that will tie the person who downloaded this PDF.
I understand I can use XDP to specify the data and within this specify the URI to the PDF template. That way when the user downloads and open the XDP it will launch the PDF and fill in the data.

What I need is also the requirement that the user cannot update these prepopulated fields. The prepop fields/data is to be read only.

Is there a way I can achieve this?

Thanks
Jim
