What is the difference in Facebook account temporary deactivation and not logging in?

[xploreraj]

Facebook has an option for temporarily deactivating an account and they say everything reamains same, and the account will get normal once I re-login.
But then, what is the difference between this temporary deactivation and someone not logging into his account (for same period)?

When you deactivate your Facebook account, you can left it so for years.
When your Facebook account is not deactivated then it won't be deleted from system. I have a profile which remains from 2010, and I don't remember password and I don't enter there since.
But when you delete your Facebook account, then you won't be able to enter your profile after 15 days. So, there are differences between deactivation and deleting your profile. Don't get confused

The Difference is if you Dont Login Your Not Online But your Account is Still There

If you Deactivate your Account

Your Account Will Be Taken Offline So Nobody will Be Able to Access the Profile
