how to sync *just* Google calendar
 

Just tried syncing my Google calendar to the built in Windows 10 calendar,
but then it asked for full permissions (incl. Deleting of everything) to my
emails and contacts.

Is there a way to only link to the calendar? Or is there another desktop
calendar I can use on windows?

Is it important that the Windows calendar be a stand-alone app? I just use
the Google calendar in my Firefox browser. Since I don't do meetings or any
of that fancy stuff, it works well for me, and syncs with my Android
calendar just fine.

Yup. I don't want to be constantly logged into Google.

I can sync my gcal without giving excessive permissions on other platforms.

I use One Calendar in Win 10, ReminderFox in SeaMonkey,
calendar-indicator in Ubuntu, and Google Calendar in Android...

What software are you using?

I use the calendar in Outlook on the PC and Android Synch (not free,
sadly) to synch between that and the calendar on my Android devices.
It's fairly modular in that you can specify whether you want to synch
your calendar, your contacts, your tasklist, etc. - in each case giving
the option for full 2-way synch or for one device to over-write the other.

Thanks. That looks like a good option. I'll give it a go.

Although I quite like outlook for work, it's integration with anything
outside of MS is non-existent. So for my personal stuff is useless. Plus, I
don't have any Android devices.
