Is it allow to hide the reCAPTCHA?

According to Google reCAPTCHA FAQ, you are allowed to hide the reCAPTCHA badge, but you must include the reCAPTCHA branding visibly on the website.

You may add this line of text “This site is protected by reCAPTCHA and the Google” into your contact form’s privacy agreement. Example:

This site is protected by reCAPTCHA and the Google
    <a href="https://policies.google.com/privacy">Privacy Policy</a> and
    <a href="https://policies.google.com/terms">Terms of Service</a> apply.
