"They are neither. This is because they do not have a true gut. Protostomes are annelidids(earthworms) Mollusca(clams, snails, octopus, etc.) and arthropods which are your insects or Spiders. The only Deuterostomes are Phlya Chordota and Echinodermata."

The above answer is incorrect. Plathyhelminthes are protostomes. There are many, MANY groups of protostomes besides annelids, molluscs, and arthropods.
