Doddington Therapy uses gmail when responding to website enquiries. Gmail encrypts messages in transit (using TLS Transport Layer Security). TLS means that emails cannot be accessed by third parties in transfer. If your email provider does not use TLS, the information you include in your email may not be secure so please consider your own privacy protocols.
