Where to change it in Shopify

Shopify themes are edited under Online Store › Themes. "Edit code" opens the Liquid templates. Many colour and typography settings can be changed without coding, from the theme editor.

</footer>Why it matters
The European Accessibility Act requires service providers to publish information about how the service meets accessibility requirements. It is the one thing a market surveillance authority can check without opening a single developer tool: they look at your footer, and if it is not there, they have a documented failure.
