It's entirely unencrypted. This means it offers the same level of protection against nosy third parties as unsecured HTTP traffic, which is not much at all.

How does DNS TLS work?

With DNS over TLS, the data exchange occurs via an encrypted channel using a simple TCP connection and a separate Port 853, which is specifically intended for the exchange of domain information. Only the two participants in this communication can unencrypt and process the data.
