Rubric scoring

Make sure footer, header utilities, and sticky elements help rather than clutter.

Review my footer, header utilities, and persistent elements. Site type: [SITE_TYPE]. Current footer links and header utility links: [PASTE_LINKS]. Common visitor needs from support or analytics: [VISITOR_NEEDS].

Score each criterion from 1 to 5 with evidence and a fix:
1. Coverage: does the footer help people who did not find what they wanted in the main menu (contact, support, shipping, returns, policies)?
2. Grouping and labels clear and predictable.
3. Length: not a dump of every page.
4. Legal and trust links present: privacy, terms, accessibility statement, company details, cookie settings.
5. Contact details and ways to get help.
6. Utility links in the header (search, account, cart, language) are recognizable and ordered by importance.
7. Mobile behavior: tap target size, spacing, collapsible groups.
8. Accessibility: landmark roles, focus order, link text.
9. Consistency across templates.
10. Persistent elements (cookie banner, chat, sticky bar) do not cover content or interfere.

Return a table with scores, the three biggest problems, and a redesigned footer outline with four to five columns. Add a list of links to remove or move.
