Per Facebook Statement of Rights and Responsibilities Section 4:

You will not use your personal profile for your own commercial gain (such as selling your status update to an advertiser).

Per Facebook Pages Terms Section 7:

Third party advertisements on Pages are prohibited.

Per Facebook Platform Polices Section 3, Sub-section E:

You can only utilize advertising or similar monetization related products or services from companies that appear on this list within Apps on Facebook.com.
