O2 , dioxygen has a non-polar covalent bond.
With other elemnts, oxygen can form covalent bonds (generally polar) and ionic bonds as the O2- ion
polar
nonpolar!
Molecular oxygen is a non polar molecule where the electron cloud is equally shared between the bonded oxygen atoms.
The electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and for fluorine it is 3.98. The difference in electronegativities is 0.54, so the bond between fluorine and oxygen is polar covalent.
Nonpolar covlalent bond

Definitely nonpolar.A molecule becomes polar if one of the atoms pulls electrons more strongly than another. But O2 is completely symmetrical--it's just two O atoms that are exactly alike. One can't pull more strongly than another, so it must be nonpolar.

Nonpolar covlalent bond
Oxygen is an element, not a bond. It will form polar bonds with most other elements, though because it is very electronegative. However, when it bonds with itself as in O2 the bonds are nonpolar.
Hydrogen gas, H2, is nonpolar because both hydrogen atoms have the same electronegativity, so the difference in electronegativity is 0, which means the bond is nonpolar, and since this is the only bond, the gas is nonpolar.
The bond in boron trichloride, BCl3, is polar covalent.

Nonpolar (:
No, HClO does not have a nonpolar covalent bond. The electronegativity difference between chlorine and oxygen in HClO causes the oxygen atom to pull electron density towards itself, resulting in a polar covalent bond.
