Our UX team is tossing around the idea of two different positions for our legal footer depending on whether the page content has infinite scroll (i.e. lazy loading of content) or not. When it doesn't, the footer will just be below the end of the page content, and you only see it when you scroll all the way to the bottom of that content. When a page has lazy loading, they want the footer to be fixed at the bottom of the page. There are more technical complications with this idea since the main page content is in a right-side container next to a narrower left-side container, but I won't go into that.
What do you think about this type of experience where the legal footer is positioned in two different ways? By the way, the legal footer contains, the (c) 2015 Blah.com text and links to terms of use, privacy, and cookies.
