30 Day Release period disclaimer
When a device is set up this way, it behaves like any other device already in Apple Business Manager, with mandatory supervision and mobile device management (MDM) enrollment. The user of that device then has a 30-day provisional period to release the device from Apple Business Manager supervision and MDM.
This 30-day provisional period begins after the device is successfully assigned to and enrolled in Compass' MDM service.
