How do I keep user's from adding custom profiles and removing the meraki profile?

The iPad in question is supervised yet they are allowed to remove the meraki mdm profile. WHY?

@Trunolimit1  As the device is not DEP loaded there is a 30 day window where the profile can be removed.

Manual device enrollment

You can also manually enroll iOS devices and Apple TV in DEP using Apple Configurator, regardless of how you acquired them. With manual device enrollment, a 30-day provisional period begins once a device is activated. During that period, users can remove their devices from enrollment, supervision, and MDM."

The iPad is supervised yet the user can still delete the meraki profile.

Another strange thing is that the dashboard is telling me there is a profile missing but then under missing profiles it says non.

Is the profile only able to not be deleted if the iPad is DEP-enrolled? and then the awkward question is... what is DEP-enrolled mean? I thought DEP was only for app purchasing?
