A cloud-based license management system that:

1. Allows you to use Rhino by logging into the Cloud Zoo using your Rhino Account.
2. Keeps track of the licenses you own. www.rhino3d.com/licenses
3. Allows you to track and manage members of a team. www.rhino3d.com/licenses
4. Allows you to use Rhino on multiple machines as long as you abide by the license agreement.

The Cloud Zoo is a new option to license Rhino. It can replace the existing license key system or Zoo, or you can continue to use the previous licensing method.

• Rhino 6.0 or newer
• A Rhino Account (Create one at [accounts.rhino3d.com] (https://accounts.rhino3d.com)).
• A Rhino 6 or newer license validated with any email address associated with your Rhino Account.
• An Internet connection when choosing to Login (you can disconnect afterward).

1. No need to deal with license keys when using Rhino.
2. Use Rhino on multiple machines with ease.
3. Rhino keeps working when you're not connected to the Internet (an infrequent connection is required).

1. In the Licensing dialog box, enter your email address, then select Login.
2. Log in to your Rhino Account when prompted, and grant access for Rhino to access the requested information from your account.

You will know you are logged in by clicking the Help menu then clicking About Rhinoceros - you'll see your avatar and username on the splash screen.
