Hi @CityGuide
The simple answer is NO. It is strictly forbidden. Google Maps is not the place for personal advertisement, but only for helping others, and Local Businesses, through our contributions
For reference you can read, on Format Specific Criteria

@ErmesT my facebook account is dedicated google map contribution account where i share post only related to map informations and those which were not accepted by google map. But those information were correct and true. Because i can’t share each and every details of map edits. So if you allow me to share facebook account it will be helpful and will benefit to google map and all people relay on google map information. And people can find any information regarding google map and they can i ask me and connect me by facebook account. If you find any violation you may delete my fb account from map. I am doing so voluntarily just to help people because whatever information i have about my city, town,street etc that i want to share with people and help them. So i hope you got my point
This conversation is not about what I personally like or think about your contributions and, as I am a local guide like you, volunteering also in this community, I am sharing with you the rules.
If you want to change the rules, for having the possibility of adding social media accounts on the contributions (but only if on the account everything is about Google Maps) you can share your idea on Idea Exchange
When Google Maps will change the rules, I will be happy to edit my answer.
Allowing you, or removing your contributions, is not something that I can, nor I want do.
