I imagine we'll have something similar so there's not really a need for a backdoor for them to know where you are with it.

That’s fair.
I saw something on it about the only way they can access our info - I’ll see if I can screen shot it later.

Yes, because it's true, unless you know some way to spy across apps in iOS. The company can only control the apps in its MAM. So if it wanted to view, say your internet history, it has to send you a custom browser app.

So if you close all company apps and are only using personal apps, are you completely "off grid" WRT them?

You don't even have to close the company apps.

Probably a dumb question but what display size for the iPad Pro are you guys getting, is it the 10.5 or 12.9?

Thanks.

They most definitely can track every single thing we do.

Tunes is not wrong, they can get everything, or at least they used to. The data however is collected downstream, regardless of the device you use. You can take two iPads with you, and the company can get data from both, or your phone, or these days, even your wifi thermostat. The companies that produce these items, sell your data to whomever is buying.
