Check 7 / 8 LOW impact In the full checklist

Trademark + copyright footer + year dynamic

What this check is

A copyright line frozen in an earlier year makes a store look abandoned, and the trademark notice protects the brand name. Both are one line in the footer.

How to implement it

Render the current year dynamically rather than typing it, state the registered trademark where applicable, and name the legal entity that owns the rights, matching the imprint. Keep the footer year generation so it never needs editing again.

How to verify it

Load the footer on any page and confirm the year matches the current one at build time, and that the entity name matches the legal pages.
