as last mile, its none of their concern, to them you are the internet, once
that traffic leaves their firewall, its open season. If they feel they
arent protecting their data to a degree that the internet is a danger to
them, then there is a problem that is well beyond your control.

now if youre doing interoffice data transit across your network, that a
little different, but they should still be encrypting their own traffic
between locations unless youre doing some sort of true bridge atop your
network.

Its pretty simple for the most part though, if theyre paying one of the
standard rates listed on your marketing material to the general public then
no,
