Only as secure as the POTS network and all the non-POTS connections between you and the receiving fax machine ... which is likely to be an email address since most businesses, especially small businesses, just pay for a fax service to keep a number and forward the faxes via unsecured email.

BTW, I use fax to deal with the govt whenever possible.  Last thing I want is any govt to know either a phone number or email address for me.  Anything they need to say, needs to be delivered by USPS or with a knock at the door.
