Spanish term or phrase: hacer propios
XYZ.com no controla ni se hace responsable, con carácter previo, ni hace propios los servicios, contenidos, productos o material existente en la página o páginas y que sean propiedad de terceros, ni de su legalidad, siendo responsabilidad exclusiva de los terceros

This appears on numerous websites and is probably very easy, but I cannot think how to say this.

In this context the expression suggests the idea that the person does not give support, adhere, back or join in, the statement or opinion. You can use any of that verbs or others synonymous. It is used in order to avoid responsibility specially in journalistic activities.
