English term

No claim to original government works

English to Czech Law/Patents Law (general) criminal law
It is a footer on a legal document, the document consists of excerpts from various regulations and statutes.
I perceive the footer as a disclaimer meaning Yes, we copied and took portions from the original official acts but do not hold us responsible if it is not exact or we missed something or just used whatever appeared handy to us. Any other opinions, am i correct? What would it be in Czech? Thank you!

bez autorských nároků na původní citace

chápu to nikoliv jako zbavení se záruky za správnost, spíše si nekladou autorské nároky na něco, co nevymysleli… obzvlášť pokud se hned vedle vyskytuje něco ve smyslu “everything else is copyrighted” nebo tak něco.

tak to budu muset napravit: Originální texty nejsou chráněné autorským právem / Na originální vládní texty se nevztahuje autorsko-právní ochrana/autorská práva

"Where were we? Ah yes, US government works. The US government is one of the largest publishers in the world and, by law, works prepared by federal government officers or employees as part of their official duties are not copyrightable. That means thousands upon thousands of works, of all kinds — written works, photographs and other images, films, software, and more — are in the US public domain."

Reference:

And if you republish a US government work ...

Let’s say you decide to create a work of your own incorporating portions of The 9/11 Commission Report, a US government work that’s in the public domain. Can you claim copyright in your work? Yes ... but you should identify which parts of the work are US government works and which parts are protected by copyright. So, depending on what you contributed to the work, your copyright notice might read something like this:

Introduction and compilation copyright © 2006 by Brenda Starr. No protection is claimed in original US government works.

Here’s a real world example. A private legal publisher includes this statement on digital copies of the cases it publishes:

© 2006 Thomson/West. No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works.

Why bother to do this? Because you want to let people know which parts of the work they’re free to use (hey, you used it, didn’t you?) and you also want to stop anyone you might sue for infringement from arguing they had no notice your work was copyrighted. (See 17 USC § 403.)
