I think there is some overlapping between the rules. It says that having multiple accounts is allowed but accounts sales are discouraged. But what happens in case of permanent ban. I have read replies that a member is not allowed to open a new account in that case. But what happens if a member got his account banned and already had other accounts created before the ban ?

If you get a ban, it's you (as a person) who is banned... This includes any account you own.
The only thing you're allowed to do after being banned is open one (1) thread discussing your ban in the meta subforum. If you use any alt account to continue posting while being banned, you're ban evading (which is, in itself, also a bannable offence).

Back on topic, i see nothing wrong with having multiple accounts IF they're not used to troll, shill, self-bump, self-vouch,... I think there are several use-cases in which it would be ok to have multiple accounts:
- one anonymous account, one doxxable account
- one account with an easy password for when you're on the road, one main account with a hard password for when you're behind your desk
- an account for branding purposes (if you own a business and "claim" the account that corresponds with your business name)
- ...
