You can log into your Spotify account using your Facebook login when the two platforms are linked. However, the linking of your Spotify and Facebook accounts also has other important implications. For instance, both Spotify and Facebook can share your data with each other when they are linked together.
Your data may further be sold to third-party apps that will use it to present targeted ads for you. If you do not want that to happen, you may consider unlinking the Spotify and Facebook accounts. You will learn in this article how to unlink your Spotify account from your Facebook account.
