Pollution, is much like the term "Weed", where a weed is any plant located where you do not want it. Like wise Pollution is adding something to an environment that causes harm or increases the amount of that substance to harmful levels. This can even include, Heat, Light and Sound.
Oxygen is a VERY nasty chemical, from a neutral chemistry point of view, but since All animals, including humans need it, we tend to forget that. In a confined space, increasing Oxygen levels is bad for humans, but in the atmosphere we simply don't produce enough to even elevate a local area.
Nitrogen is Mostly what the Air you breathe is made of. In a confined space, increasing the amount of Nitrogen will decrease everything else, including oxygen, which can dip the oxygen low enough to cause harm. The atmosphere is already 78.09% Nitrogen so the amount of Nitrogen needed to be added by Humans to even slightly change that ratio is really not possible to acquire.
So when properly vented to the atmosphere neither are considered as pollution.
