Hi πŸ‘‹, thanks for making this book theme awesome and open!
I'm using this theme with Japanese translation, and want to suggest two changes in the footer:

  1. In Japan, usually the word 'copyright' and the copyright statement is not translated. Better to use "Copyright" in the footer.
  2. In Japanese language, "By foo" in this context will be "foo θ‘—", "foo 作", etc. If we want to put the word before the name of author, it is better to use "θ‘—θ€…" (author) instead.

e.g. https://www.ipa.go.jp/, https://www.dic.go.jp/, and https://www.env.go.jp/

These seem reasonable to me - and I trust your judgment about proper translations more than my own :-)
