How do I disable Clamav from downloading virus database from Internet

I have clamav software installed in my Server (Centos 7) which is under a corporate proxy. I want to stop clamav from trying to download virus databases everytime I try to run freshclam. I'm updating the .cvd files manually every month or so. So how do I stop clamav from downloading frequently.
