Yup. Compliance is when they provably do, IMO.
The person asking this question needs to understand that
different organizations that issue recommendations, specifications,
and standards have different if overlapping meanings for
terms like 'conformance' and 'compliance' and different
means if any to prove that a given artifact does conform or comply.
Beware of first order controls applied to second order systems.

I'd phrase it as
Conformance is when they (sometimes provably) claim to implement a
set
of those details.
