How to Provision Footer links in SharePoint Online using PnP Provisioning Template?
Go to the PnP Provisioning Schema repository on GitHub and build your provisioning template. https://github.com/SharePoint/PnP-Provisioning-Schema, Here is mine:
Provisioning Template XML for Footer Links:
<?xml version ="1.0"?>
<pnp:Provisioning xmlns:pnp="http://schemas.dev.office.com/PnP/2019/03/ProvisioningSchema">
<pnp:Preferences/>
<pnp:Templates ID="CONTAINER-TEMPLATE-c49f81cd-19d0-458d-a99d-1a616c252add">
<pnp:ProvisioningTemplate ID="TEMPLATE-c49f81cd-19d0-458d-a99d-1a616c252add" Version ="1">
<pnp:Footer Enabled="true" Name="" Logo="SiteAssets/logo.png" RemoveExistingNodes="true">
<pnp:FooterLinks>
<pnp:FooterLink DisplayName="Contact Us" Url="http://www.crescent.com/contact-us" />
<pnp:FooterLink DisplayName="Site Map" Url="http://www.crescent.com/sitemap" />
<pnp:FooterLink DisplayName="Privacy Policy" Url="http://www.crescent.com/privacy-policy" />
</pnp:FooterLinks>
</pnp:Footer>

Make necessary changes and save this as a XML file. E.g. PnpFooter.xml
