Is the alternative hypothesis in the adfuller test from the stattools python library no trend AND no seasonality or just no trend?

I've run the adfuller test on my data, and it came out as indicative that there is nowhere near sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis. However, I don't even know what the null hypothesis is - is it that there is either a trend or seasonality, or is it just that there is a trend? Since my data is seasonal but doesn't appear to have a trend, I would hope that the former is true, but I don't know. I've looked all over the internet, including, of course, in the documentation, but so far found nothing.

Furthermore, I would also like to confirm that there is indeed seasonality in my data. Would that be possible to do with the adfuller test? If not, how would I test for seasonality?
