They didn't. It's vague.
There is no vagueness at all - it is about as explicit as could be desired

Since there are territories listed in the countries where points can be earned , it is pretty clear that territories are not classed under USA

How much clearer can it be when it lists

Territories where points can be earned are explicitly listed

It seems quite correct that there were no points due from the rental
