Degoogling google calendar (feddit.dk)

As part of my degoogling, I am looking for an alternative to the google calendar. Not necessarily free. My requirements are:

Importable into and editable in standard calendar apps on iPhone and Android.
Hosted, no self hosting.
Full privacy!

Any recommendations?

Edit:

Full privacy as in my data is not used in personalised ads or ML training. End to end encryption is not needed.

Yes, it could very well fullfil my requirements, but preferably a bit more simplistic. Like Proton Calendar, if only it integrated into the iOS ecosystem.

Idea #2. Why not just use apple’s iCloud with advanced data protection turned on? It’s not perfect from a privacy perspective but at least apples business model isn’t data mining you.

Calendars, contacts and mail are not end to end encrypted on icloud even with advanced data protection.

Actually, I was looking in the direction of smaller european gpdr focused companies, but this is actually a really good suggestion. I will look into it! Thx!
