Adding a CORS header for my iframe game

The game I have uploaded to itch.io requires a connection to an offsite server to play. The connection from which my iframe is held is currently at https://v6p9d9t4.ssl.hwcdn.net, but I assume that I could be swapped servers per upload or maybe more frequently. If I use this hosted domain as the CORS domain, will this domain change on me on my next upload?

If this is the case, I'll have to restart my server every time I update or the host server for my game changes. Is there any way to make linking CORS more consistent?

This domain is where all of our HTML5 games are served from. It will not change without notice. If we do move the domain then we'll give notice. If you want to future-proof your CORS setup you can also add the domain itch.zone, since that's probably the final domain HTML5 games will end up at.
