Radicale is a small CalDAV and CardDAV server you run on your own machine. Because you host it, there is no company in the middle reading your schedule and it works with every standard calendar app, from Apple Calendar to Thunderbird to DAVx5 on Android. Be clear on one thing: Radicale does not encrypt your events end-to-end. It stores them as plain .ics files on your server so privacy comes from you securing that server, not from the software hiding data from you. Best for technical users who want full ownership and standard sync and can run their own box.
