Device Question (preloaded Fizz software?)

Hey everybody,
I'm looking at going with Fizz, and want to finance a Google Pixel with the company. I have two questions pertaining to privacy:
- Is the Google pixel identical to what I'd buy at Best Buy, or is there preloaded firmware on the device installed by fizz? For example, I once financed a phone with Rogers, and there was a Rogers app already loaded into the firmware. I was not okay with this, and it made me wonder about their data collection practices.
- Secondly, is the phone properly ublocked so that I can install alternative firmware like GrapheneOS?
I take my privacy seriously, and would really appreciate any helpful feedback. Thanks everybody.
