You build your pirate stuff (bases and fortresses) from the colony. Look at the buttons below the selection panel when the colony is selected.

There are more than one button there, look for something green (from memory). If you have over 50(?) percent control, you should be allowed to build the hidden pirate base.

The pirate bases don't appear when you don't have enough money. You need 30k for balanced pirates.

The second screenshot seems to have an unrelated problem though. It says you don't control any colonies, even though you control one.
That one looks like a bug you should send.
