 * You can hide it with CSS using the following in Appearance->Customize->Additional
   CSS
 *     ```
       .site-footer .imprint {
           display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * Otherwise, if you want to remove it from the source code itself, you’ll need 
   to create a child theme ( [https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/](https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/))
   and then modify the footer.php file to remove the following code
 *     ```
       <a href="<?php echo esc_url( __( 'https://wordpress.org/', 'twentynineteen' ) ); ?>" class="imprint">
       				<?php
       				/* translators: %s: WordPress. */
       				printf( __( 'Proudly powered by %s.', 'twentynineteen' ), 'WordPress' );
       				?>
       			</a>
       ```
