  Hi there,

  As WordPress is open source you’ll be able to modify the theme’s footer code replacing the default footer content with the content of your choosing. If you are new to WordPress best practice will be to use a Child Theme to prevent theme updates from overriding your changes.

  As your site is not hosted by the team here at WordPress.com for assistance with these changes you may want to reach out to the WordPress.org Community or your hosting company. The WordPress.org community provides support at:
  https://wordpress.org/support/

  If you need help with a site hosted by WordPress.com just let us know and we’d be happy to assist.
