Specify license #267

Description

@danieldegroot2

Was mapswipe/mapswipe#620 (repository was archived and the issue was closed);
see also comments on said issue.

Concerns

Specify which license you mean exactly, e.g. CC BY 4.0 and add a link. For the footer, use the license chooser below (in addition to the current text).

(Also, "You can do whatever you want with the data, just make sure to credit the MapSwipe contributors." may be innacurate, depending on your license and/or other terms.)

Example:
https://wiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/Marking_your_work_with_a_CC_license#Example:_Website

Creative Commons license chooser:
https://chooser-beta.creativecommons.org/

Related #187 (which mentions it was for rework in 2023 but may still need improvement), mapswipe/mapswipe-mobile#44

Could you let me know what your thoughts are, please? Closing the issue without proper reply may be confusing, cause it to be lost, etc.

For questions regarding specifically OpenStreetMap data licensing, attribution and reuse; please read https://osmfoundation.org/wiki/Licence pages and contact the Licensing Working Group at https://osmfoundation.org/wiki/Licensing_Working_Group .
