If you store it in your directory on OSX, then it should only be readable by your user.

If that's not sufficient, you could store it on an AES-encrypted disk image, or you could use FileVault on your home directory (not recommended though, since it could affect performance). I think for most users just putting it in a folder owned by you and not readable by any other users would be sufficient.
