Heck...I had completely forgotten to mention online alternatives to
Google calendar.  Also, you can run you own open source calendar
database on your web server via the calDAV extension to webDAV.  Here's
a summary:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CalDAV
Most Linux etc distros should have options in their repositories, and
most DEs (KDE...) have a calendar program that can talk to a calDAV
server,, as well as clients for android cell phones etc.

Running your own calendar would server solve your security questions at
the expense or more work for you!  (i.e. No good deed goes unpunished!)
