The seven channels, in the questions

Cinema and out-of-home, answered in full.

The two channels bought as places rather than people: whether a cinema buy really sits outside GDPR, whether anybody is tracking phones, and whether you can pick the screens yourself.

Is cinema really outside GDPR?

The targeting is. Nothing personal enters a cinema specification: it is audience packs, genre packs and venue catchments, all of them aggregate. That is why this channel's lawful-basis manifest is the shortest of the seven. Your own measurement of the campaign may involve personal data, and that is covered separately.

Digital out-of-home

Are you tracking people's phones?

No, and less than you might assume even in intent. The compiler records that DOOH delivery data is aggregate and outside UK GDPR scope, and where a consent-attested segment is referenced the lawful-basis manifest names the provider that attested it. Beyond that: the Adsquare movement-data contract does not exist yet, so no movement data reaches the product at all. Nothing in a DOOH plan identifies an individual.

Can I pick specific screens?

Yes, and on this channel it is the honest route rather than a fallback. Picking billboards, shows, channels and venues by hand is a first-class path through the product. There is no screen ranking to overrule: the compiler returns an empty ranking list, because the movement data that would order screens by persona over-index does not reach the product at all.

If the answer above raises a question about your own budget, that is the sort of thing a forty-five minute working session is for.
