DEEN PRIVACY NOTICE  
Effective Date: [1 February 2023]  
About this Notice  
Thank you for downloading Deen.  
Your privacy and the security of your personal data is, and will always be, very  
important to us. So, we want to transparently explain how and why we gather, store,  
share and use your personal data.  
This Notice sets out the details of your personal data relationship with Pulse  
Ecosystems Pte Ltd, a Singapore company (“PulseCo”) and its affiliates. This Notice  
applies to all services made available to you through Deen App (the “Deen Services”).  
This Notice tells you:  
Who we are;  
What information we collect and why;  
Where we get your information from and who we share it with;  
What you can ask us to do; and  
How to contact us if you need to.  
From time to time, we may develop new or offer additional services. If the introduction  
of these new or additional services results in any material change to the way we collect  
or process your personal data we will provide you with more information or additional  
terms or policies. Unless stated otherwise, when we introduce these new or additional  
services, they will be subject to this Notice.  
The terms governing your use of Deen App are defined in our Deen App Terms and  
Conditions.  
Who are we?  
Your Data Controllers  
PulseCo and any Prudential takaful entity (“Pru Local Entity”) operating in your  
territory (see Appendix 2) are separate data controllers (in some territories, this is  
known as a data user or data operator) of the personal data collected or gathered  
through your use of the Deen Services, although the Pru Local Entity only processes  
such data as is necessary to carry out the purposes described in the “Why do we  
need your personal data?” section below.  
If you purchase any takaful products or register to utilise any takaful services provided  
by Pru Local Entity on Deen, the Pru Local Entity will collect and process your data for  
such purposes in accordance with their own terms and conditions and privacy notices.  
The Pru Local Entity does not gather, collect or process any Health Data (as defined  
below) from your use of Deen. If you are a customer of the Pru Local Entity, the Pru  
1
Local Entity may collect health data as part of the underwriting process to provide you  
with an takaful product or service in accordance with their own privacy notices.  
For the data controllers' contact information, please see the "Updating your details  
and contacting us" section below.

services, Qibla direction services, other Deen content creators, the Health  
Assessment and Symptom Checker services, telemedicine Services, and other  
services that we may add to the Deen App from time to time.

Children's information  
Deen App is not targeted at persons under the age of 18. We do not knowingly  
collect personal data from persons under the age of 18. While certain Deen  
Services may ask parents to provide data of their children where required for the  
service, we do not knowingly collect personal data about persons under the age  
of 18 without a parent/legal guardian's consent (please see the “Acting on  
someone else’s behalf?” section below). If you believe that we have collected  
personal data from a person under the age of 18, or we have collected personal  
data about a person under the age of 18 without a parent/legal guardian's  
consent, please inform us via the details in the "Updating your details and  
contacting us" section below.  
Acting on someone else’s behalf?  
Deen App is primarily designed to be used by yourself only; however there may  
be limited circumstances where you may give us personal data about others. If  
you give us personal data about another person (or persons), we’ll take that to  
mean they have appointed and authorised you to act on their behalf. This  
includes providing consent to:  
our processing of their personal data (including any Health Data) as mentioned  
above; and  
you receiving this Privacy Notice on their behalf.  
If you give us personal data about a person under the age of 18, you must either  
be the person's parent/legal guardian or have the consent of the person's  
parent/legal guardian before doing so.
