I don't think "pirating" is a legal definition. By the way, point 8 has an important caveat at the beginning: "It is possible to make a copy of a work for personal use under the exceptions contained in the Czech Copyright Act." (Emphasis mine) Point 11 only says that you're not responsible for copyright infringement if your use falls into what's described in art.29 of the copyright act (the "three steps", which according to point 8 are described in that article), which according to google translate says --- > (1) Exceptions and limitations of copyright can only be applied in special cases established by law and only if such use of the work does not conflict with the normal way of using the work and neither does it the legitimate interests of the author are not unreasonably affected. > (2) Free use and legal licenses, with the exception of the official license and news (§ 34), license for school work (§ 35 par. 3), license for reproductions of works from own collections for archival and conservation needs [Section 37 paragraph 1 letter a)], license for temporary reproductions (§ 38a), a license for a photographic likeness (§ 38b) and a license for non-essentials secondary use of the work (§ 38c), apply only to the published work. --- Which to me reads like the usual fair use exceptions you find in other countries. In Italy, at least, downloading copyrighted content without authorization is not a felony, but you can still get fined. I expect much of the EU to have similar provisions.
