Footer layout, responsiveness and hiding on small devices with Bootstrap 4

New to Bootstrap 4 here. I'm trying to get my page footer to conform to the same layout as the following mockup:

enter image description here

My best attempt thus far is as follows:

index.html (snippet):

<!-- footer -->
<hr/>
<div class="container-fluid">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-sm">
      <span class="linklist-label">Foobar</span>
      <ul class="linklist">
        <li><a class="footer-link" href="">Fizz</a></li>
        <li><a class="footer-link" href="">Buzz</a></li>
        <li><a class="footer-link" href="">Foobar</a></li>
      </ul>
    </div>
    <div class="col-sm">
      <span class="linklist-label">Other Stuff</span>
      <ul class="linklist">
        <li><a class="footer-link" href="">Cool Links</a></li>
        <li><a class="footer-link" href="">What's New</a></li>
        <li><a class="footer-link" href="">Newsletter</a></li>
      </ul>
    </div>
    <div class="col-sm">
      <span class="linklist-label">Zoo Stuff</span>
      <ul class="linklist">
        <li><a class="footer-link" href="">Zebras</a></li>
        <li><a class="footer-link" href="">Rhinos</a></li>
        <li><a class="footer-link" href="">Monkeys</a></li>
      </ul>
    </div>
  </div>

  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-6">
      <img src="dummy-logo.png" class="img-fluid footer-logo" alt="My logo">
    </div>

    <div class="col-sm">
      <span class="linklist-label">Contact Us</span>
      <br/><span class="fas fa-phone" aria-hidden="true"></span> 800.555.5555
      <br/><span class="fas fa-envelope" aria-hidden="true"></span> <a href="mailto:info@example.com">info@example.com</a>
      <br/><span class="fas fa-map-marker-alt" aria-hidden="true"></span> 123 Testville Rd
      <br/>&nbsp;&nbsp;Testville, XY 12345
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

<div class="row">
  <div class="col-sm"><a href="" class="">Status</a></div>
  <div class="col-sm"><a href="" class="">Legal</a></div>
  <div class="col-sm"><a href="" class="">Privacy</a></div>
  <div class="col-sm"><a href="" class="">Terms</a></div>
</div>

main.css:

html, body {
    height: 100%;
    font-family: 'Lato';
}

.bordered {
    border-radius: 5px;
    border: 1px solid white;
}

.navbar {
    background-color: #00142E;
}

#navb ul {
    align-items: center;
}

.red-button {
    border-radius: 5px;
    border: 1px solid #A81E30;
    background-color: #A81E30;
    color: beige;
}

.mainlogo {
    height: 50px;
}

.footer-logo {
    height: 100px;
}

hr {
    margin-top: 1rem;
    margin-bottom: 1rem;
    border: 0;
    border-top: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}

.linklist {
    list-style-type: none;
    padding-left: 0;
}

.linklist-label {
    font-weight: bolder;
    color: #A81E30;
}

.linklist a.footer-link {
    color: #00142E;
}

.linklist a.footer-link:hover {
    color: gray;
}

When this runs in the browser, I get:

As you can see, I'm kinda sorta somewhat there, but still have a ways to go. As far as responsiveness goes, I think that if the screen is small (mobile device, etc.) I want the footer (everything here) to disappear entirely.

Can anyone spot where my layout/positioning is going awry and also help me achieve the "disappear on small screen" functionality I'm looking for?

For making your footer disappear for certain device you need to mentioned maximum and minimum size of screen where you want to display.

@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) and (min-width: 480px) {
 .footer{ display: none !important;}
}

You can nest row and columns like this:

html, body {
    height: 100%;
    font-family: 'Lato';
}

.bordered {
    border-radius: 5px;
    border: 1px solid white;
}

.navbar {
    background-color: #00142E;
}

#navb ul {
    align-items: center;
}

.red-button {
    border-radius: 5px;
    border: 1px solid #A81E30;
    background-color: #A81E30;
    color: beige;
}

.mainlogo {
    height: 50px;
}

.footer-logo {
    height: 100px;
}

hr {
    margin-top: 1rem;
    margin-bottom: 1rem;
    border: 0;
    border-top: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}

.linklist {
    list-style-type: none;
    padding-left: 0;
}

.linklist-label {
    font-weight: bolder;
    color: #A81E30;
}

.linklist a.footer-link {
    color: #00142E;
}

.linklist a.footer-link:hover {
    color: gray;
}

    #myLogo { display: block; width: 360px; height: 58px; border: 1px solid red; margin: 1em auto;}

Notes::

This markup completely fit for both bootstrap 3x and 4x (haven't tried 5). Read more on grid system here: boots4, boots3 .

The only different is the class combination d-none.d-sm-block that replace hidden-xs of bootstrap 3: This class(es) would hide the element on small devices based on framework @media rules. Read more about helper classes for display content here.
