It is google Android but they do not pay for the name so they call it 'FairphoneOS'. It comes with all the standard GApps.
Now for the important question though:
Do they allow the user to uninstall those apps like any other app?
That's not how that works, they call it FairphoneOS because they added their own customizations. Default Android is pretty barebones nowadays so nobody uses that. You dont have to pay Google to use the Android name
