You can install Rclone either for all users on a system or for a single user.
Install Rclone System-Wide
Assuming you have administrative priviledges, you can install Rclone across your system.

Download and run that script to install the latest
version of Rclone
system-wide:
$ curl https://rclone.org/install.sh | sudo bash
Install Rclone for Individual Use
If you don’t have administrative privileges or don’t want to install Rclone system-wide, you can download the latest binary and use it directly.
Use the following string of commands to download Rclone, create a
/bin
directory in your home folder, and add it to your
PATH environment
variable:$ mkdir ~/Temp
$ cd ~/Temp/
$ curl -O https://downloads.rclone.org/rclone-current-linux-amd64.zip
$ unzip rclone-current-linux-amd64.zip
$ cd rclone-*-linux-amd64
$ mkdir ~/bin
$ cp rclone ~/bin/
$ export PATH=$PATH:~/bin
$ echo 'export PATH=$PATH:~/bin' >> ~/.bashrc # Optional, only if you want to add it to
your path at every login
Note:
PATH is reset when you log out unless you put it to your.bashrc
