You will find the order here:
Just move around like you want:

Remember the override folders


includes/ modules/ sideboxes/ your_own_template/ information.php

I think you can move the sections of code around to the order you want them to display.

For example,

if (DEFINE_PRIVACY_STATUS <= 1) {
$information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_PRIVACY) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY . '</a>';
} 

will put the privacy link that you have renamed "Copyright Info" into the $information array as the third value if it appears after two other "if (...) {...}" statements. If one of those statements is inactive, the privacy link will be second.

the list I have here is information.php file first then your other reference after

DEFINE_SHIPPINGINFO_STATUS  >  define('BOX_INFORMATION_SHIPPING', 'Shipping & Returns');

DEFINE_PRIVACY_STATUS       >   define('BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY', 'Copyright Info');

DEFINE_CONDITIONS_STATUS    >  define('BOX_INFORMATION_CONDITIONS', 'About Me');

DEFINE_CONTACT_US_STATUS    >  define('BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT', 'Contact Me'); 

// Forum (phpBB) link:     >   define('BOX_BBINDEX', 'Forum');

DEFINE_SITE_MAP_STATUS     >  define('BOX_INFORMATION_SITE_MAP', 'Site Map');

SHOW_NEWSLETTER_UNSUBSCRIBE_LINK  > define('BOX_INFORMATION_UNSUBSCRIBE', 'Leave Newsletter');

So you need to re-order these BLOCKS of code in information.php into the order you want them to appear...
