Last updated: November 6, 2026 (America/Los_Angeles). Applies to Mother Lode Defensible Space.
Mother Lode Defensible Space is a local lead-matching website that connects Sierra foothill homeowners with independent licensed contractors for defensible space and related work. We are not CAL FIRE and not a construction contractor.
When you submit a form, we may collect: name, phone, email, property address, town, county, lot size, work requested, insurance/inspection flags, deadlines, budget, timeline, and how you found us. Contractor interest forms may include company name, license number, and service area.
Homeowner requests are shared only with participating local contractors who have joined Mother Lode Defensible Space, so they can quote your job. We do not sell personal information to data brokers or anyone else. Service providers that host this site, its forms, or email (for example Netlify and Google) may process data on our behalf.
If you check the consent box, you agree we and up to two matched contractors may contact you by phone or text about your request, including autodialed messages. You can opt out by replying STOP to a text or asking us/the contractor to stop calling.
California residents may request to know, delete, or correct personal information we hold, subject to legal exceptions. Contact us at mcgreevybrian2-mxvr13@mail.grokbot.com to make a request.
This service is not directed at children under 13.
