Yes, you are right that there is another part of the definition about large scale, regular and "systematic monitoring" of individuals. Apologies for not including that in the answer above.
Quoting from WP 243 Annex provided by the EU:
"The notion of regular and systematic monitoring of data subjects is not defined in the GDPR, but clearly includes all forms of tracking and profiling on the internet, including for the purposes of behavioural advertising. However, the notion of monitoring is not restricted to the online environment."
2. We agree it is not GDPR compliant to transmit IP address data to the US. This is why we salt and hash all PII data so no IP address data is sent to the US. Please see our data policy.

We anonymize and aggregate all data so can't track or profile any users, or do such monitoring offline.
