Summary
The Confluence footer does take up a decent amount of room, so you might desire to make it smaller. The Atlassian Customer Agreement requires attribution, but only in the following format:
“Powered by Atlassian,” which must in every case include a hyperlink to http://www.atlassian.com, and which must be in the same format as delivered in the Software.
Solution
Remove the Atlassian logo, and all spacing around the required text by performing the following steps:
Go the Confluence Administration page (via the cog)
Go to Custom HTML
Click the Edit button
Paste the following into the section labelled "At end of the HEAD”
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
<style> #footer .footer-body { margin:0; padding:0; min-height:0; } #footer-logo { display: none !important; } </style>
Click Save and go to any Confluence page to verify the footer is now smaller
