Their software freedom policy seems to be similar to Debian. All free by default, allow separate nonfree addon. In the case of Guix you can find that here: https://gitlab.com/nonguix/nonguix https://gitlab.com/nonguix/nonguix .

This is to show respect for the Guix project’s strict policy against recommending nonfree software, and to avoid any unnecessary hostility. Hah, I wonder why I didn't come across it before.
