I got it working but how do I change it so the WordPress link opens in a new tab?
<?php
/**
* The template for displaying the footer
*
* Contains footer content and the closing of the #main and #page div elements.
*
* @package WordPress
* @subpackage Twenty_Twelve
* @since Twenty Twelve 1.0
*/
?>
</div><!-- #main .wrapper -->
<footer id="colophon" role="contentinfo">
<div class="site-info">

<?php do_action( 'twentytwelve_credits' ); ?>
<?php
if ( function_exists( 'the_privacy_policy_link' ) ) {
the_privacy_policy_link( '', '<span role="separator" aria-hidden="true"></span>' );
}
?>
<a href="<?php echo esc_url( __( 'https://www.ads-software.com/', 'twentytwelve' ) ); ?>" class="imprint" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Semantic Personal Publishing Platform', 'twentytwelve' ); ?>">
<?php
/* translators: %s: WordPress */
printf( __( 'Proudly powered by %s', 'twentytwelve' ), 'WordPress' );
?>
</a>

<?php wp_footer(); ?>
