Everyone has their own ideas on where to put the jack and stands. I use the subframe in the front (careful not to jack on the oil pan), and the differential in the rear.

For the jack stand locations, I use Mazda's standard locations on the crush rail just in front of the rear wheel and just behind the front wheel (on each side of the car).
