Hanno from Mozilla here.

Just keep in mind that the current Mozilla Location Service is run as an 
experiment with no SLA’s and provided under a no-guarantees / best-effort 
clause.

We’ll want to change that and we are committed to continue running this, 
especially since we have a very real business need for our own Firefox OS 
devices.

But if you want to send a significant number of users our way or need SLA's, we 
should talk first. And in general we are open to discussing lots of things 
around the service.

If you have any questions, please ask :)
Hanno
