GHSA mercy rule question

I know the rule for GHSA (Georgia) mercy rule is:

Quote:
If a team trails by 30 or more points at halftime, their coach has the option to play the 3rd quarter with regular timing rules, or with a running clock. If a team trails by 30 or more points at the end of the 3rd quarter, the 4th quarter must be played with a running clock. Running Clock Rules: Clock will be stopped only: a) after a TD and until the kick off is legally touched by R, b) during deliberations for penalty administration, and c) during charged time-outs or officials time-outs.
Is the clock stopped after all scores (FGs, safeties), or just after touchdowns?
