This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
Footer titles and texts were not translated because they were not included in the xliff file.
Solution:
If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend translating the footer contents via String Translation since they are added through widgets. You can add these strings for translation by navigating to WPML>>String Translation>>Translate texts in admin screens (at the bottom of the screen). After adding, please translate those strings from WPML>>String Translation and check if the translation appears as expected. For more details, refer to the following documentation:
