Answer 3

Your views are important and shape policy.

"To shape" means to give a particular form to; to create; to develop; to affect.

The sentence seems to be used in the context of providing feedback to a company, and is saying that the views of the customer are important because the management will take those views into consideration in forming the company's policies in the future.

Maybe:

Su punto de vista es importante y influye nuestra norma.

Answer 4

Su punto de vista es importante. Formará las decisiones de principio.

or it may need the subjunctive

Su punto de vista es importante. Forme las decisiones de principio
