API usage with ads – Commercial plan required?

Hi, I would like to ask: if I create a simple website or app that uses the API and I include ads (only basic banner ads, non-intrusive), would I still be allowed to use the Developer Key, or would I need to switch to a Commercial API subscription?

Thanks!
