Fastmail is great. It ticks all of your points except the privacy changes in Australia. It didn’t change for the better. FastMail Hase some statements about that. Check their blog.

You could also DIY with a VPS and an email project like iRedMail, Soverign, or others. I used iRedMail for a few years and it was pretty easy. As a potential benefit, if you want to pick up more DNS record + email knowledge and have a go at maintaining a linux box it's not a bad project. It's ~$2/month depending on what you use.

There is Runbox, a Norwegian fastmail equivalent if you’re looking for something non-American, but g-suite e-mail offers privacy.
