Are red-headed men banned from sperm donation?

Hello everyone! I'm considering donating my sperm in the US, but I've been getting information about how does sperm donation work, how much do you get paid and all that stuff, but I'm rather concerned about the profile of the donor. I've heard most sperm donor profiles correspond to white, blonde people with blue eyes and light skin colour. But of course there are black, asian, brazilian, etc. profiles as well. What I've heard over there is that for example gingers are banned from sperm donation, and I find it quite crazy to be honest. Be it as it may, I'd like to find out whether this is true and if so, what is the scientific explanation behind it. If not, I take it as a way of bullying people with no apparent reason. What about infertile couples or women with red hair? I find it lovely that they are able to have also a red-headed child :)
