Anyone who is not of the 3 Abrahamic Faiths (Christianity, Islam, Judaism) is technically considered a pagan. This would include Buddhists and Hindu people too. If you disect the word paganism though it really means the "practices of people who live in the country" so that could apply to anyone.

Pagan comes from the Latin word Pagani or Paganus meaning "Country Dweller"

Ism means A distinctive practice, system, or philosophy, typically a political ideology or an artistic movement.

Paganism - distinctive practice of a country dweller
