Default How to protect formatting

I have a sheet with cells containing conditional formatting. The user of the
sheet is supposed to paste data. If data is pasted normally (Ctrl+V) then
formatting is gone. If paste special values is used then it works fine.
However I need to ensure that paste special values is used. Is it possible to
lock the formatting of cells in som way?

Any other ideas how to solve this problem?

Thank you
The Doctor
