How to hide embedly javascript key?

I'm working with Embedly and found out that the key I use, and pay for, in the Embedly javascript is plainly visible as anyone can just "Inspect Element" and see the key.

How can I hide that part of the javascript, the key part, from people just using "Inspect Element"?

<script type="text/javascript">
  $('document').ready(function(){
    $('div.featuredGame').embedly({
      maxWidth: 200,
      maxHeight: 140,
      key: 'KEY REMOVED'
    });
  });   
</script>
