Generally, you don't need to. And you can't - since it's a client-side script. Just make sure that:

  1. Your key has the right restrictions applied, e.g. HTTP referrers. You can restrict the key to only work on specific domains. If someone tries to use your key outside of your domain, it will not work.
  2. Use different keys for different environments.
