you mean the link in the Footer?

It may be in the terms of the Hosting contract?

Yes that's it. But if the terms of the hosting contract limit what you can do with the code then in it's not GPL.

They distribute the css, in that they let us edit it, but they limit what we can do with it. Not GPL.

Yeah and I bet they don't let you edit /etc/passwd either. Restrictions on their server have nothing to do with copyleft.
Right, because it's a security issue to restrict how you edit the css.
