What about hetzner storeagebox? https://www.hetzner.com/de/storage/storage-box/ with client side encryption ? It's cheap and reliable, supports all common file transfer methods - the encryption can and likely should anyway be done by your preferred backup tool?
I would like to second this. Me personally I am pretty happy with using a storage Box as one of the Backup locations. It is on the pricier end, so I only use it for backup of certain file types (e.g. not for storing video backups or Disk images)
